Reaction Steps

(6-Chloro-imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazin-3-yl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-6-yl-methanone (Stage 292.2, 4.0 g, 13.44 mmol) was suspended in dioxane (400 mL) and it was heated at 90° C. When all the material was in solution, it was cooled down to 50° C. and the 3 M methylmagnesium bromide solution (28.8 mL, 40.3 mmol) was added. It was refluxed for 2 h. Then it was cooled down to rt and the precipitate formed was filtered off. It was taken up with EtOAc/MeOH (9:1) and washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution and brine. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the title compound as a brown solid (tR 0.3 min (conditions 2), MH+=314)
