24. Preliminary results indicated that 13 may be used instead of 9 in the formation of 17.
25. Because of its high polarity, 17 was taken directly into the next step without purification.
26. Although pyridone 18 may be brominated at the requisite position, attempts to advance the 3-bromopyridone were unsuccessful.
