Reaction Steps

2-[2-(Benzyloxy)ethyl]-1-(2-fluoro-2-methylpropyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c][1,5]naphthyridine 5-oxide (1.97 g, 5.00 mmol) was dissolved in 50 mL of CH2Cl2 and treated with 5 mL of concentrated aqueous NH4OH solution. The mixture was stirred rapidly and then p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (1.00 g, 5.33 mmol) was carefully added. Rapid stirring was continued for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was then treated with 20 mL of H2O. The layers were separated and the organic portion was washed successively with 5% Na2CO3 solution, H2O and brine. The organic portion was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Chromatography (SiO2, 10% CMA/CHCl3) gave 0.90 g of 2-[2-(benzyloxy)ethyl]-1-(2-fluoro-2-methylpropyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c][1,5]naphthyridin-4-amine as a yellow solid.
