Acetonitrile → ethyl[(3S)-3-({[8-(cyclohexylmethoxy)-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl]carbonyl}amino)piperidin-1-yl]acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 307 mg of 8-(cyclohexylmethoxy)-2-methyl-N-[(3S)-piperidin-3-yl]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxamide dihydrochloride, 335 mg of potassium carbonate, 5 ml of acetonitrile, and 5 ml of DMF was added 92 μl of bromoethyl acetate under ice-cooling, followed by stirring for 3 hours under ice-cooling. To the reaction mixture were added water and chloroform to carry out a layer separation operation. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 299 mg of ethyl[(3S)-3-({[8-(cyclohexylmethoxy)-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl]carbonyl}amino)piperidin-1-yl]acetate.
