carrier gas flow 0.9 ml/min, Agilent 1901S 433UI column:
evaporator temperature 250°С, thermostat temperature 70–
290°С, temperature gradient 10°С/min, EI ionization, 70 eV.
Recording of the mass spectrum of compound 12f as well
as the determination of its molecular mass was performed
on a Thermo Electron Double Focusing System high-
resolution mass spectrometer (EI ionization, 70 eV) using
perfluorokerosene (PFK) as the standard. Elemental
analysis was performed on a Fisons EA 1106 Elemental
analyzer. Melting points were determined on a Kofler
bench. Monitoring of the reaction progress and assessment
of the purity of synthesized compounds was done by TLC
on Sorbfil АF-А-UV plates, visualization with UV light or
in the iodine chamber.
The precursors 3-amino-6-methyl-4-phenylpyridin-2(1H)-
one (7) and 2-chloro-N-(6-methyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-
pyridin-3-yl)acetamide (8) were prepared following methods
published by us previously.17
2-(Chloromethyl)-5-methyl-7-phenyloxazolo[5,4-b]-
pyridine (9). A mixture of 2-chloro-N-(6-methyl-2-oxo-
4-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridin-3-yl)acetamide (8) (277 mg,
1.0 mmol), POCl3 (1.0 ml, 10 mmol), and P2O5 (426 mg,
3.0 mmol) was heated under reflux for 4 h. The excess
POCl3 was evaporated, and the thick residue was carefully
treated with ice water. The formed precipitate was thoroughly
triturated, filtered, washed with water, and air-dried. It was
recrystallized from hexane–i-PrOH, 5:1 mixture. Yield
127 mg (50%), light-beige crystals, mp 126–128°С.

Synthesis of N-substituted 2-(aminomethyl)-5-methyl-
7-phenyloxazolo[5,4-b]pyridines 12a–f (General method).
A mixture of 2-(chloromethyl)-5-methyl-7-phenyloxazolo-
[5,4-b]pyridine (9) (260 mg, 1.0 mmol) and the
corresponding amine (1.1 mmol) was heated under reflux in
Me2CO (10 ml) in the presence of K2CO3 (276 mg, 2.0 mmol)
(twofold excess of the amine was used for the synthesis of
compounds 12а,b) and a catalytic amount of KI (3 mg).
The progress of the reaction was monitored by TLC, eluent
hexane–CHCl3–Me2CO, 1:2:1. The reaction mixture was
filtered from the precipitate of salts, washed with Me2CO,
and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was
recrystallized from hexane–iPrOH, 2:1 mixture.
