Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-butyl-7-methyl-3-[3-nitro-4-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-pyrrolyl]benzyl]-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (145 mg), 10% palladium on carbon (30 mg), and methanol (5 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours under hydrogen atmosphere (4 atom). After vacuum filtration, the filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to give a yellow residue of 3-[3-amino-4-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)1-pyrrolyl]benzyl]-2-butyl-7-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (130 mg). This residue was treated with acetic anhydride (1 ml) and pyridine (2ml) at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was evaporated in vacuo and purified by preparative thin layer chromatography (ethyl acetate-acetic acid=19:1) to give a brownish viscous oil (65 ml). To a solution of the oil in ethanol (2ml) was added a solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate (12.8 mg) in water (1 ml) and the mixture was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in water (2 ml) and lyophilized to afford sodium salt of 3-[3-acetamido-4-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-pyrrolyl]benzyl]-2-butyl-7-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (65 mg) as an amorphous powder.
