       reaction intermediate IXa with a suitable chlorinating reagent such as phosphorous oxychloride to provides chloro intermediate Xa;  
       reacting intermediate Xa with the desired amine —NH(R c )(R d ), preferably while heating in a sealed vessel to provide compound of formula I (R 3 ′—NH(R c )(R d ), R 4 ═H).
