Participants

Reaction Steps

3-Iodo-1-(4-piperidyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine (0.5 g, 1.45 mmol), 1H-2-imidazolecarbaldehyde (0.42 g, 4.34 mmol), sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.61 g, 2.90 mmol) and glacial acetic acid (0.26 g, 4.36 mmol) were mixed with 1,2-dichloroethane (20 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours and saturated sodium bicarbonate solution was added to adjust the pH to about 9. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to give 1-[1-(1H-2-imidazolylmethyl)-4-piperidyl]-3-iodo-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine (0.57 g, 92%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 1.85 (m, 2H), 2.17 (m, 4H), 2.92 (m, 2H), 3.55 (s, 2H), 4.57 (m, 1H), 6.92 (s, 2H), 8.14 (s, 1H).
