✦ Synopsis


Mutations induced by substances formed during food cooking are a field of growing interest; for a better comprehension of the mechanism of action of these carcinogens, simple routes to their synthesis are needed. In this letter we describe an easy method for 2-amino-l-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhlP) synthesis, starting from the commercially available 2,3-di~mlnopyridine 1 via the 2-amino-3methylamino-5-phenylpyridine S formation. The key step of this approach is the one pot synthesis of 5 performed by photolysis of 2-amino-5-iodo-3-(N-methyi-N-tosylamlno)pyridine 4 to obtain simultaneous phenyiation and tosyl group removal. Compound 5 was then used as an intermediate to obtain the 1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine 6 which was aminated to afford PhIP in good overall yields.
