A 100-mL single-neck round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer and reflux condenser was purged with nitrogen and charged with 1H-benzo[d]imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (1.50 g, 9.26 mmol) and thionyl chloride (10 mL). After heating at reflux for 16 h, the suspension was cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filter cake was washed with toluene (10 mL) and dried under vacuum at room temperature for 5 h. The resulting solid was charged into a 100-mL single-neck round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer and reflux condenser, followed by chloroform (10 mL) and 2-hydroxyethylamine (559 mg, 9.17 mmol). After stirring at reflux for 16 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was triturated with water (20 mL) and dried in a vacuum oven at 45° C. to afford a 73% yield (1.41 g) of 152a as a white solid: mp 194-195° C.; 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) d 13.13 (s, 1H), 8.74 (s, 1H), 7.71-7.29 (m, 4H), 4.80 (s, 1H), 3.55 (dd, 2H, J=10.5, 5.5 Hz), 3.38 (dd, 2H, J=10.5, 5.5 Hz); MS (APCI+) m/z 206.6 (M+H).
