Reaktionsschritte

350 mg of potassium carbonate were added to a solution of 552 mg of 1-[(2'-t-butoxycarbonylbiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-butyl-4-hydroxymethylimidazole-5-carboxylic acid (prepared as described in Example 4) and 220 mg of pivaloyloxymethyl chloride in 7 ml of N,N-dimethylacetamide, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. At the end of this time, the reaction mixture was mixed with ethyl acetate and water, and the ethyl acetate layer was separated and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate; the solvent was then removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography through silica gel, using ethyl acetate as the eluent, to give 0.62 g of the title compound as a syrup.
