Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

The procedure is similar to that described in Example 1, but starting with benzoic acid (13.4 g), N,N'carbonyldiimidazole (17.8 g) and 2-amino-7-methoxy-1,8naphthyridine (12.3 g). The product produced by precipitation in water (20 g; m.p. 80° C.) is dissolved in boiling acetonitrile (200 cc). After 1 hour's cooling at 4° C., the crystallised solid is separated by filtration, washed with acetonitrile (2×10 cc) and dried at 40° C. under reduced pressure (0.067 kPa). N-(7-methoxy-1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl)benzamide (7.8 g) is produced, m.p. 134° C. EXAMPLE 10
