Reaction Steps

5-(Pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridine (196 g, 1 mol) was dissolved in 1000 mL DMF. KOH (112 g, 2 mol) was added. After stirring for 30 min, I2 (303 g, 1.2 mol) was added. The mixture was stirred for 1 h at room temperature. After reaction, the reaction was quenched with saturated aq. Na2S2O5 solution followed by the addition water (5 L). The solid was filtered and washed with water to give 3-iodo-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridine as a yellow solid (290 g, 90%)
