Procedure

Operating as in Example 1, but starting from 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo-[4,5-c]-pyridine and methyl iodide, 1-Methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo-[4,5-c]-pyridine is obtained as intermediate and successively reacted with methyl isothiocyanate to give 1-Methyl-5-(N-methylthiocarbamoyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo-[4,5-c]-pyridine in a 78% yield, m.p. 238° C.
