Participants

Reaction Steps

A quantity of 0.2 gm of 2-(2-dimethylamino-4-nitro-phenyl)-5-methoxy-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine is heated in a bomb tube to 100° C. for three hours with 5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The reaction mixture is poured onto about 20 ml of ice, neutralized, and extracted with ethyl acetate.
