Reaction Steps

3.00 g (12.81 mmol) of ethyl 8-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxylate Example 239A, 3.27 g (14.1 mmol) of 2-(bromomethyl)-1,3,4-trifluorobenzene and 9.18 g (28.17 mmol) of caesium carbonate were initially charged in 183 ml of dry DMF and heated for 30 min in an oil bath warmed to 60° C. About 1.8 l of water were then added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. The solid was filtered off, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure. This gave 5.07 g of the title compound (99% of theory; purity about 96%).
