Tetrahydrofuran → 6-chloro-1-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazo(4,5-b)pyridine triethylamine salt

Participants

Reaction Steps

6-Chloro-1-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazo(4,5-b)pyridine (1 gram) was mixed with 15 milliliters of tetrahydrofuran, and 0.7 milliliter of triethylamine added. The reaction mixture was evaporated and then held in a vacuum desiccator overnight, resulting in the desired 6-chloro-1-hydroxy-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazo(4,5-b)pyridine triethylamine salt. The compound was subjected to NMR analysis (in deuterium oxide); analysis showed a triplet centered at 82 cps (9H); a quartet centered at 196 cps (6H); a meta-coupled doublet at 400 cps (1H); and a second meta-coupled doublet centered at 503 cps (1H).
