Reaction Steps

A mixture of tert-butyl 2-morpholin-4-yl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-6-ylcarbamate (363 mg, 1.14 mmol) and hydrochloric acid (5M in diethyl ether, 24.0 g, 20 ml, 100 mmol) was stirred for 5 hours at 25° C. and then the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The light yellow residue was made alkaline using sodium hydroxide solution (2 M in water). The mixture was extracted 2 times with ethyl acetate, the organic layers were combined, washed with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtrated and evaporated to dryness, affording 2-morpholin-4-yl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-6-ylamine (227 mg, 91%) as grey solid. Mp.: 165° C. MS: m/z=220.1 (M+H+).
