Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 5-chloro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-2-amine ((A4), 10.0 g; 59.32 mmol; 1.0 eq.) in cyclohexylamine (60 mL) was heated to reflux for 52 h. Reaction mixture was taken up in MTBE and filtered. The resulting cake was washed with MTBE and filtrate was concentrated to dryness. Residue was purified by flash chromatography (Hept/EtOAc, 1:1) to give the title compound as a beige powder (8.08 g, 59%). HPLC, Rt: 2.46 min. (purity 98.9%). LC/MS, M+(ESI): 231.9.
