A mixture of 8.2 parts of 2-(methylthio)-1H-benzimidazole, 16 parts of 1-bromo-3-chloropropane, 5.3 parts of sodium carbonate and 200 parts of 4-methyl-2-pentanone is stirred and refluxed for 44 hours. After cooling, water is added and the layers are separated. The organic phase is dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue is stirred in 2,2'-oxybispropane. The unreacted starting material is filtered off and the filtrate is evaporated, yielding 6 parts (50%) of 1-(3-chloropropyl)-2-(methylthio)-1H-benzimidazole as an oily residue.
