Procedure: 250 parts of water, 98 parts of N-methylcyanoacetamide and 169 parts of acetoacetic acid ethyl ester are initially placed in an autoclave, 40 parts of gaseous monomethylamine are injected, while stirring, and the reaction mixture is then heated at 90° C. for 3 hours, a pressure of 2.9 bars being generated. The batch is diluted with 400 parts of water, 80 parts of 61% strength sulphuric acid are added at 30°-35° C., the batch is cooled to 20° C. and the precipitate which has been formed is filtered off. 155.8 parts (95% of theory) of 1,4-dimethyl-3-cyano-6-hydroxypyrid-2-one with a melting point of 285° C. are obtained. are added at 30°-35° C. the batch is cooled to 20° C. the precipitate which has been formed is filtered off

Procedure: To a 50 ml three necked round bottom flask, 4-(7-pivaloyl-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)-ethoxy)methyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazin-2-ylamino)benzaldehyde (0.25 g, 0.0005 mole) and 2-cyano-N-methylacetamide (0.22 g, 0.0022 mole) was taken in ethanol (20 ml). To this reaction mixture, piperidine acetate (1.0 ml) was added dropwise at RT. After completion of the addition, reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 hr. After completion of the reaction, ethanol was distilled out under vacuum and water was added to the residue. The aq. layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. Combined organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to afford crude product. The crude compound was purified by triturated with n-pentane, the pentane layer was decanted and solid was dried under vacuum to yield 0.255 g of 2-cyano-N-methyl-3-(4-(7-pivaloyl-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazin-2-ylamino)phenyl)acrylamide which was converted to the title compound as described in Example 1, Step 2 above. After completion of the addition, reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 hr was distilled out under vacuum and water was added to the residue The aq. layer was extracted with ethyl acetate Combined organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 filtered concentrated to afford crude product The crude compound was purified by triturated with n-pentane the pentane layer was decanted solid was dried under vacuum

Procedure: 0.394 g (9.95 mmol) of 60% sodium hydride in mineral oil is added in small amounts to a solution, cooled to 0-5° C., of 0.483 g (4.93 mmol) of N-methylcyanoacetamide in 7 ml of anhydrous dimethylformamide. Stirring is continued at this temperature for 10 minutes and then a solution of 1.0 g (4.93 mmol) of 2-(aminoethyl)-6-chloronicotinic acid fluoride in 5 ml of dimethylformamide is added. The medium is stirred overnight at ambient temperature and then a further 0.197 g (4.93 mmol) of 60% sodium hydride is added in small amounts. Stirring is continued at this temperature for 10 minutes and then 0.56 ml (9.78 mmol) of acetic acid is added. 60 ml of water are subsequently added and the solid is filtered off, rinsed with water and then dried in an oven. 1.30 g of the expected product are obtained. Melting point: 283-284° C. MH+=281. Yield=94%. The medium is stirred overnight at ambient temperature Stirring is continued at this temperature for 10 minutes the solid is filtered off rinsed with water dried in an oven
