Potassium Hydroxide → 3-(4-(cyclopropyl(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)methoxy)-3-methoxybenzyl)-6-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-amine

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of ethyl(3-(4-(cyclopropyl(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)methoxy)-3-methoxybenzyl)-6-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-yl)carbamate (0.44 g, 0.75 mmol) in n-butanol (4 mL) and water (4 mL) was added potassium hydroxide (0.42 g, 7.49 mmol). The mixture was heated to 130° C. After 16 h, the mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and was diluted with water (15 mL). The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×60 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified via prep-HPLC to provide 0.058 g (15%) of the product as a white solid: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.24 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 8.09 (d, J=3.0 Hz, 1H), 7.78 (s, 1H), 7.70-7.68 (m, 2H), 7.64 (s, 1H), 6.78-6.23 (m, 4H), 5.21 (s, 2H), 4.85 (s, 2H), 4.50 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 3.98 (s, 3H), 3.93 (s, 3H), 3.79 (s, 3H), 1.45-1.40 (m, 1H), 0.75-0.70 (m, 1H), 0.61-0.50 (m, 2H), 0.38-0.34 (m, 1H) ppm; (M+1)=512.
