Sodium Chloride → 2-[4'-(3''-t-Butyldimethylsiloxypropoxy)phenyl]-6-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.00 g (corresponding to 5.95 mmol) of 2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-6-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine was dissolved in 30.0 mL of dimethylformamide, and 2.47 g (corresponding to 17.9 mmol) of potassium carbonate was added. Then, 1.51 g (corresponding to 5.95 mmol) of 1-bromo-3-(t-butyldimethylsiloxy)propane was added thereto. After the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 days, it was supplemented with saturated sodium chloride solution, and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (elution solvent: hexane/ethyl acetate=1/1) to obtain 1.52 g (corresponding to 2.99 mmol) of 2-[4′-(3″-t-butyldimethylsiloxypropoxy)phenyl]-6-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (FIG. 2-10, Step 4).
