4-Methylmorpholine → 5-bromo-N-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-7-ylmethyl)thiophene-2-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 5-bromothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (1.279 g, 6.18 mmol), imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-7-ylmethanamine (1 g, 6.79 mmol), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate (1.041 g, 6.79 mmol) and N-methylmorpholine (1.698 ml, 15.44 mmol) in dimethylformamide (20 ml) at room temperature was treated with 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (2.131 g, 11.12 mmol). The mixture was stirred overnight and poured into a gently stirred round-bottom flask containing water (100 ml) and ethyl acetate (30 ml). The resulting bilayer suspension was stirred for several minutes, filtered and washed with water then minimal ethyl acetate to give the title compound after drying.
