Reaction Steps

200 mg (corresponding to 0.595 mmol) of 2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-6-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine was dissolved in 3.0 mL of dimethylformamide, and 247 mg (corresponding to 1.79 mmol) of potassium carbonate was added thereto. Then, 259 mg (corresponding to 0.714 mmol) of 1-bromo-2-(t-butyldiphenylsiloxy)ethane was added thereto. After the reaction mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2 hours, a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution was added, and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (elution solvent: hexane/ethyl acetate=2/1) to obtain 368 mg (corresponding to 0.595 mmol) of 2-[4′-(2″-t-butyldiphenylsiloxyethoxy)phenyl]-6-iodoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (FIG. 1, Step 4).
