Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture consisting of 15.0 gm (0.05 mol) of 2-chloro-6-morpholino-4-phenyl-3-cyano-pyridine (see Example C), 20 ml of 80% hydrazine hydrate and 100 ml of ethylene glycol was heated for 3 hours at 130° C. Thereafter, the resulting solution was poured into about 1 liter of water, whereupon a virtually colorless precipitate formed which was collected by suction filtration, washed with water and then immediately reprecipitated from 700 ml of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid with concentrated ammonia. The reprecipitated product was collected by suction filtration, washed and dried, yielding 13.7 gm (93% of theory) of practically pure 3-amino-6-morpholino-4-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine, m.p. 178°-180° C., of the formula ##STR6## After recrystallization from ethanol it had a melting point of 180°-182° C.
