Using the general method of Example 12 Part D, a pyridine solution of tert-butyl 3-[(3-amino-5,6-dimethyl-2-phenoxypyridin-4-yl)amino]propylcarbamate (see Example 12 Part C) was treated with ethoxyacetyl chloride (21.81 g, 178 mmol). The crude product was combined with dichloromethane (2 L) and water (2 L). The pH was adjusted to 12 with 50% sodium hydroxide and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The organic phase was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with heptane and then concentrated to remove residual pyridine. This procedure was repeated several times to provide 64.8 g of tert-butyl 3-[2-(ethoxymethyl)-6,7-dimethyl-4-phenoxy-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-1-yl]propylcarbamate as a brown tar.
