Iodomethane (0.52 mL, 8.36 mmol) was added to a solution of 6-chloro-4-(methylthio)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2.01 (1.40 g, 7.04 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1.95 g, 14.1 mmol) in 46 mL of DMF at room temperature. After 90 minutes, reaction mixture was taken up in ethyl acetate (150 mL) and washed with 50% saturated NaHCO3 (aq)(2×100 mL). After separating layers, aqueous was extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL). All combined organic layers were washed with 50% brine (100 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield a solid. This was purified via silica gel column chromatography (5-25% acetone in hexanes) to yield 6-chloro-3-methyl-4-(methylthio)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2.02 (first eluting product).
