Participants

Reaction Steps

To an ice-cooled solution of 4-amino-1-mesityl-1,6-dihydro-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-7-one (268 mg, 1.0 mmol) in DMF (3 ml) was added sodium hydride (60% in oil, 44 mg, 1.1 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes. Methyl iodide (0.081 ml, 1.3 mmol) added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Additional sodium hydride (60% in oil, 44 mg, 1.1 mmol) and methyl iodide (0.081 ml, 1.3 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The resulting mixture was diluted with water (30 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (30 ml×2). The extracts were combined, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (1:1-2:3) to give 140 mg (50%) of the title compound as crystals.
