Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-{2-[4-(2-ethyl-5,7-dimethyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]ethyl}-N-methylamine (step 1, 523 mg, 1.7 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) and triethylamine (2 mL) was added p-toluenesulfonyl isocyanate (400 mg, 2.0 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h. After removal of solvent, the residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with dichloromethane/methanol (10:1) to afford 358 mg (42%) of the title compound as white solids: 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.93 (2H, d, J=8.3 Hz), 7.31 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 7.24 (2H, d, J=8.3 Hz), 7.14 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 6.92 (1H, s), 3.66–3.49 (2H, m), 3.51 (3H, s), 2.93–2.70 (4H, m), 2.65 (3H, s), 2.50 (3H, s), 2.38 (3H, s), 1.24 (3H, t, J=7.2 Hz).
