Procedure
To a solution of 3-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-yl)pyrazin-2-amine (0.45 g, 1.8 mmol) (see Example 1) in THF is added N-bromosuccinimide (0.37 g, 2.1 mmol). The reaction is stirred for 4 hours at ambient temperature. Sodium sulfite (excess) was added and stirred vigorously for 30 minutes. The mixture was then concentrated to dryness and treated with water. After sonication, the solids were collected on filter. Rinsing (×2) with diethyl ether afforded 5-bromo-3-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-yl)pyrazin-2-amine (0.47 g, 79%) as tan solids.
