Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

SnCl2 (1337 mg, 7.05 mmol) was added to 4-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-3-nitro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (360 mg, 1.41 mmol) in 6N HCl (10 mL) at 0-5° C., and the reaction was stirred at 0-5° C. for 1 hour. The solution was neutralized by addition of 6N NaOH and then extracted with CHCl3/IPA 3/1. The combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to leave 4-fluoro-5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-amine (300 mg, 95% yield) as an oil.
