Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-[4-(4-methyl-3′-nitro-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyridinyl-6′-yl)-piperazin-1-yl]-2-morpholin-4-yl-ethanone (as prepared in the previous step, 0.16 g, 0.37 mmol) in 2:1 EtOH:water (3 mL) was treated with NH4Cl (0.20 g, 3.7 mmol) and iron powder (0.10 g, 1.8 mmol). The reaction was heated to 100° C. for 50 min then cooled to room temperature. The mixture was neutralized with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound (0.14 g, 100%), which was immediately used in the next reaction.
