Reaction Steps

Heat a solution of 6-trifluoromethyl-1,3-dihydro-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one. (0.6 g, 2.95 mmol) and tetramethylammonium chloride (0.3 g) to 110° C. in phosphorus oxychloride (10 mL) for 10 hours. After cooling, remove the excess POCl3 in vacuo, and then neutralize with saturated NaHCO3, extract with EtOAc. Dry over Na2SO4, concentrate under vacuum to obtain 2-chloro-6-trifluoromethyl-3-H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine.
