Ammonia → 2-[4-(2-methyl-4-m-tolylethynyl-imidazol-1-yl)-2-oxo-2H-pyridin-1-yl]-acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2 ml of a 7M solution of ammonia in methanol were added 60 mg (0.16 mmol) of [4-(2-methyl-4-m-tolylethynyl-imidazol-1-yl)-2-oxo-2H-pyridin-1-yl]-acetic acid ethyl ester (Example 13). The reaction vessel was closed and the yellow solution was stirred for 16 h at room temperature. The solution was then evaporated to dryness yielding 45 mg of the title compound as a light brown solid, MS: m/e=347.1 (M+H+).
