Reaction Steps

A solution of 7-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-b]pyridine (215 mg, 1.4 mmol) in aniline (1.3 ml) was heated under reflux under nitrogen for 16 h. The mixture was cooled, and the white solid which separated was collected, washed with 60°-80° petrol and water, then dried. The solid was then dissolved in 60% aqueous methanol (25 ml). The solution was filtered, adjusted to pH9 with 10% sodium carbonate solution, and on cooling the product crystallised, to give the title compound as needles (161 mg, 55%), m.p. 222°-224° C.
