HCID 218759342-[4-(2-Ethyl-5,7-dimethyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-3-yl)phenyl]ethyl propionate

Procedure

To a stirred suspension of 2-{4-[(3-amino-4,6-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)amino]phenyl}ethanol (step 4, 1.3 g, 5.1 mmol) in toluene (30 mL) was added dropwise propionyl chloride (990 mg, 10.7 mmol) at 0° C., and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux temperature for 2 h. After cooling, the mixture was poured into water (50 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (100 mL). The organic layer was washed with 2N aqueous NaOH (50 mL) and brine (50 mL), then dried (MgSO4). Removal of solvent gave 1.8 g (quant.) of the title compound as brown solids: 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.41 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 7.33 (2H, d, J=8.4 Hz), 6.90 (1H, s), 4.37 (2H, t, J=6.9 Hz), 3.04 (2H, t, J=6.9 Hz), 2.82 (2H, q, J=7.6 Hz), 2.65 (3H, s), 2.52 (3H, s), 2.35 (2H, q, J=7.6 Hz), 1.27 (3H, t, J=7.6 Hz), 1.14 (3H, t, J=7.6 Hz).
