Reaction Steps

N,N-dimethyl-4-(pyridine-4-yl) aniline (0.15 g, 7.6 mmols) was dissolved in acetonitrile (50 ml) and methyl iodide (4 ml) was added. The mixture was heated at reflux for 4 hrs then cooled to ambient temperature. IDT307 (0.17 g, 5 mmols) crystallized upon standing and was removed via filtration. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 3.40 (s, 6H), 4.25 (s, 3H), 6.92 (d, 2H), 8.06 (d, 2H), 8.38 (d, 2H), 8.80 (d, 2H).
