The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at RT and then was partitioned between ETOAc and water; the organic phase was washed with brine and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed (SiO2; continuous gradient from 1:1 hexane:EtOAc to 100% EtOAc) to give 1-methyl-2-phenyl-imidazole-5-carboxaldehyde as a solid (35 mg; 32%; 1st eluted fraction; Part A compound) and Part B compound
