Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.72 g of 2-(2-bromothiophen-3-yl)-3-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine, 0.25 g of ethyl mercaptan sodium salt (80%), 0.08 g of copper iodide and 4 ml of N-methylpyrrolidinone was stirred at 70° C. for 4 hours. Water and aqueous ammonium (28%) were poured into the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was applied to a silica gel column chromatography to obtain 0.30 g of 2-(2-ethylthiothiophen-3-yl)-3-methyl-6-trifluoromethyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (Compound of Present Invention (13)).
