Patent number: 5700938Abstract: The present invention provides an industrially advantageous process for preparing a 2-alkyl-3-(biphenyl-4-yl)methyl-3H-imidazo?4,5-b!pyridine derivative represented by the following formula (II) which is a precursor of an antagonist against an angiotensin II receptor useful as an antihypertensive drug, a biphenyl derivative which is a precursor of the substituent of the pyridine derivative, a process for the preparation thereof, and an intermediate useful for the preparation of the biphenyl derivative: ##STR1## The 2-alkyl-3-(biphenyl-4-yl)methyl-3H-imidazo?4,5-b!pyridine derivative can be prepared in a high yield according to the present invention from a 2-amino-5-halogeno-3-nitropyridine derivative through amidation, N-alkylation and reductive cyclization. The halogen atom introduced at the 5-position as a protective group against nitration can be eliminated simultaneously in the step which is conducted thereafter. Thus, this process is industrially advantageous.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 1995Date of Patent: December 23, 1997Assignees: Eisai Co., Ltd., Eisai Chemical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshio Urawa, Ken Furukawa, Toshikazu Shimizu, Yoji Yamagishi, Tomio Tsurugi, Tomio Ichino
