Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

432 mg (corresponding to 2.0 mmol) of 2-bromo-4′-hydroxyacetophenone and 279 mg (corresponding to 2.0 mmol) of 2-amino-5-nitropyridine were dissolved in 20 mL of acetonitrile. The resulting solution was refluxed in an oil bath at 110° C. for 6 hours. After the completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was cooled down to room temperature, and precipitates were filtered and recovered. The precipitates were washed with acetonitrile and dried under reduced pressure. The resulting crude crystals were suspended in a mixed solution of 8 mL of water and 8 mL of methanol. Then, about 8 mL of a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution was added thereto, and the mixture was sonicated for 3 minutes using an ultrasonic washing machine. Precipitates were filtered and recovered from the resulting mixture, sufficiently washed with water, and dried under reduced pressure, to obtain 148 mg (corresponding to 0.580 mmol) of 2-(4′-hydroxyphenyl)-6-nitroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (FIG. 8, Step 2).
