A mixture of 8-hydroxy-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (14.8 g), bromobenzene (15.7 g), copper powder (1.0 g) and powdered potassium hydroxide (5.6 g) in N-methyl pyrrolidone was heated under reflux for 4 hrs. The solvent was removed by distillation and the residue suspended in dichloromethane, washed with 10% sodium hydroxide solution and the dichloromethane was evaporated to give 2-methyl-8-phenoxyimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine. Treatment of this compound in accordance with Examples 10 and 11 yields the desired product.
