Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 6-(1-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3-methyl-4-(methylthio)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2.39 and 6-(1-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3-methyl-4-(methylthio)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2.40 (1.44 g, 4.78 mmol) in DCM at 0° C. was added mCPBA (2.47 g, 14.3 mmol) and the reaction was stirred for 5 min at 0° C. and warmed to rt for 2 hours. Water (20 mL) and EtOAc (40 mL) were added and the layers were separated and the aqueous was extracted with EtOAc (3×40 mL). The combined organics were washed with saturated NaHCO3 (2×50 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chomatrography to afford 6-(1-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3-methyl-4-(methylsulfonyl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine 2.41.
