(4) reacting the C 1-4 alkyl 4-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-1-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate with a strong acid to form an acid salt of 2-oxo-1-(4-piperidinyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine.

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein step (3) comprises reacting the C 1-4 alkyl 4[(aminocarbonyl)(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate with NaHCO 3 , i-PrOH and bis(diphenylphosphino)butane in the presence of a palladium catalyst.

16 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the C 1-4 alkyl in steps (1) to (4) is ethyl.

17 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the acid salt of steps (1) and (4) is selected from the group consisting of HCl, HBr, HI, H 2 SO 4 and HNO 3 .

18 . A process for the preparation of2-oxo-1-(4-piperidinyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine dihydrochloride, said process comprising the steps of:

(1) reacting 3-amino-2-chloropyridine with ethyl 4-oxo-1-piperidinecarboxylate to form ethyl 4[(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate;

(2) reacting the ethyl 4[(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate with chlorosulfonyl isocyanate to form ethyl 4[(aminocarbonyl)(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate;

(3) reacting the ethyl 4[(aminocarbonyl)(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate to form ethyl 4-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-1-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate;

(4) reacting the ethyl 4-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-1-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate with HCl.

19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein step (3) comprises reacting the C 1-4 alkyl 4[(aminocarbonyl)(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)amino]piperidine-1-carboxylate with NaHCO 3 , i-PrOH and bis(diphenylphosphino)butane in the presence of a palladium catalyst.

20 . A process for the preparation of an acid salt of 2-oxo-1-(4-piperidinyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine, comprising the steps of:
