Reaction Steps

6M Hydrochloric acid (1 ml) was added to a solution of 2,6-dimethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)-4-[(2'-(2-triphenylmethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methoxy]pyridine (A) (800 mg) in dioxan (20 ml) and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours. Volatile material was removed by evaporation and the residue triturated with ether. The ether was separated and the residue was dissolved in methanol. Ether was added to precipitate the product and the solvent was again separated. The residue was then triturated with ether to give 2,6-dimethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)-4-[(2'(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methoxy]pyridine dihydochloride (0.51 g), as a solid, m.p. 180° C. (decomposition); NMR (d6 -DMSO, d4 -acetic acid): 2.4(s,3H), 2.75(s,3H), 5.45(s,2H), 7.1(d,2H), 7.25(d,2H), 7.5-7.8 (complex m,5H), 8.0(d,2H), 9.0(d,2H); mass spectrum (positive fast atom bombardment (+ve FAB) DMSO/nitrobenzyl alcohol): 869.4 (2M+H)+ ; microanalysis, found: C,56.7; H,5.3; N,14.9; H2O,8%; C26H22N6O.2HCl.2.5H2O0.2(C2H5)2O requires C,56.7; H,5.5; N,14.8%.
