Participants

Reaction Steps

2.07 g (15.0 mmol) of potassium carbonate were added to a solution of 4.0 g (14.7 mmol) of 5-benzyl-2-methylsulphanyl-3,5-dihydro-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-4-one and 1.31 ml (15.0 mmol) of 1-bromo-2-butyne in 100 ml of dimethylformamide and stirred for one hour at ambient temperature. Then approx. 200 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution were added and the mixture was extracted three times with 50 ml of ethyl acetate. The extracts were washed with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated down. The crude product thus obtained was purified by column chromatography (silica gel; eluant:dichloromethane with 0–2% ethanol).
