3-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-1-ethyl-7-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one → HCID 58577432, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-1-ethyl-7-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (88.3 g) in DMF (540 mL) and EtOAc (1080 mL) was added 10% Pd—C (9.0 g) at room temperature under Ar atmosphere. The mixture was hydrogenated under balloon pressure at room temperature for 5 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite, and then insoluble materials were washed with EtOAc (500 mL). The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was suspended in EtOAc (350 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with EtOAc (250 mL) and IPE (100 mL), and dried in vacuo to give 1-ethyl-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-7-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (56.0 g) as light purple powder.
