Procedure

2-Chloroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (5.0 g) is suspended in 30 ml of phosphorus oxychloride and refluxed for 5 hours. After cooling, the reaction solution is poured into 250 ml of ice water and extracted with dichloromethane. The dichloromethane layer is collected, dried on anydrous sodium sulfate and then concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to afford 4.6 g of the title compound as pale yellowish crystals.
