Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To the solution of 3-bromo-4-chloro-furo[3,2-c]pyridine (3.0 g) in 40 ml of dioxane was added 28% ammonia solution (15 ml) in an autoclave and put into the oil bath. The reaction mixture was allowed to heat up to 150° C. and stir for 5 days at 150° C. The resultant mixture was poured into ethyl acetate and brine. The organic phases was separated, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column to afford 3-bromo-furo[3,2-c]pyridin-4-ylamine (1.3 g). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) ppm 7.93 (d, J=6.1 Hz, 1H), 7.52 (s, 1H), 6.87 (d, J=5.8 Hz, 1H). MS: m/z 213, 215 (M+H)+.
