Procedure

A mixture of 2-aminonicotinaldehyde (92.8 g, 0.76 mol) and bromoacetone (114.5 g, 0.84 mol) in dimethoxyethane (980 ml) is stirred for 2 hours at room temperature and then heated at 65° with stirring for 14 hours.The solid which separates is isolated by filtration, dissolved in 800 ml absolute ethanol and heated under a reflux for 6 hours. The ethanol solvent is removed under reduced pressure and the residue treated with 138ml 6 N hydrochloric acid in 750 ml water for 0.5 hour. The acidic aqueous layer is washed with ether (2×300 ml) and basified with cooling (78 ml) 50% sodium hydroxide and 25 g sodium bicarbonate). The aqueous layer is extracted with dichloromethane. The extracts are combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Following filtration, the solvent is removed under reduced pressure to afford 2-methyl-8-formyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, mp 136°-139.5° C.
