Reaction Steps

To a solution of compound 6-acetoxy-5-oxo-1,5-dihydro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester (PCT/AU2007/001980) (2.0 g, 7.96 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (20 ml) was added compound 2-chloro-1-piperidin-1-yl-ethanone (2.0 g, 12.42 mmol), K2CO3 (1.7 g, 12.32 mmol), KI (133 mg, 0.8 mmol) successively. The mixture was heated at refluxed for 3 hours. After cooling to the room temperature, the mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give titled compound (2.0 g, yield 66.7%).
