Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 1-[2-(2-ethylsulfanyl-phenyl)-3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-6-yl]-2,2,2-trifluoro-ethanol (98 mg), toluene (10 ml), and pyridine (50 μl), thionyl chloride (1 ml) was added. The mixture was stirred with heating at 50° C. for 5 hours, and then saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution was poured, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give 66 mg of 6-(1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-2-(2-ethylsulfanyl-phenyl)-3-methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (hereinafter referred to as Present Compound 266).
