Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.200 g (0.71 mmol) of 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)methyl-7-methyl-2-propyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (Step D, Example 2) dissolved in 0.5 mL of DMF was deprotonated (82 mg KH, 0.188 g 18-crown-6) and alkylated with 0.184 g (0.78 mmol) of commercially available methyl 2-bromo-2-cyclohexylacetate similarly to the procedure described in Example 2, Step E. Purification on a silica gel flash chromatography column eluted with 30% ethyl acetate/hexane afforded 0.029 g (10%) of the title compound.
