ABSTRACT
A scalable 5-step synthesis of the diazacarbazole derivative 1 used as tau PET tracer precursor is reported. Key features of this synthesis include a Buchwald-Hartwig amination, a Pd catalyzed CH activation and a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling.

ABSTRACT
A new method for the straightforward synthesis of 2-amino-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines and derivatives is presented. The target products are synthesized in high yields from guanidylpyridines and analogues via copper-catalyzed N-N coupling. The present methodology shows a wide scope, tolerating not only different substituents on the pyridine ring but also different heterocylic rings such as pyrazines, pyrimidines, and pyridazines.
