Методика

4.24 g (25.4 mmol) of 2-(chloromethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine were dissolved in 150 ml of tetrahydrofurane with magnetic stirring and then 4.2 g (28 mmol) of sodium iodide were added. The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 3 h. In another flask, 9.84 ml (101.8 mmol) of ethyl 2-hydroxyacetate were solubilized in 100 ml of tetrahydrofurane with magnetic stirring, and then the mixture was cooled to 0° C. and 4.072 g (101.8 mmol) of sodium hydride were added portionwise. The mixture was stirred 15 min at 0° C. and then the freshly prepared solution of 2-(iodomethyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine in tetrahydrofurane was added drop wise within 15 min. The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 24 h before being filtered on silica (eluent: tetrahydrofurane 100%). The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and directly purified by flash chromatography on a silica gel cartridge (eluent: dichloromethane/methanol gradient, from 100% to 70% of dichloromethane, v/v; and then washing the cartridge with 100% methanol). 3.62 g (yield=69%) of 2-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-ylmethoxy)acetic acid were obtained as a beige solid. LC-MS: m/z=207 (MH+); UV purity at 254 nm=98%.
