Reaction Steps

A round bottom flask under nitrogen was charged with 8-chloro-N-(diphenylmethylene)-1,5-naphthyridin-3-amine (315 mg, 0.92 mmol), 2M aqueous HCl (1.42 mL, 2.84 mmol), and tetrahydrofuran (0.25M, 3.67 mL). This was stirred at RT for 30 minutes. Reaction basified with aq. sodium bicarbonate solution and product extracted with dichloromethane. This was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to afford orange solid; which was purified via ISCO silica gel chromatography, 40 g column, 30% (90/10/1 DCM:MeOH:NH4OH)/DCM over 40 minutes to afford 7-amino-1,5-naphthyridin-4-ol (140 mg, 95% yield) as yellow solid. MS[M+H]=180.2. Calc'd for C8H6ClN3=179.6.
