Reaktionsschritte

2.5 g (12.88 mmol) of 2-phenyl-benzimidazole was dissolved in 30 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide, and 5.3 g (38.6 mmol) of K2CO3 and 2.0 ml (16.7 mmol) of 1-chloro-4-iodobutane were added to the resulting solution, followed by mixing the mixture at a room temperature for 10 hours. The reactant was combined with 100 ml of water and extracted with ethylacetate (70 ml×5) being washed with water and a sodium hydroxide solution, and then the combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The solvent was removed from the filtrate under a reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was refined by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethylacetate=2/1) to obtain 3.5 g (yield 96%) of the title compound.
