Reaktionsschritte

2-methyl-1-(tetrahydropyran-4-yl)benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid HCl salt (see Working Example 4-3) (0.25 g, 0.96 mmol), 2-amino-4-methylphenol (0.13 g, 1.05 mmol), anhydrous DMF (500 mL) and WSC (0.22 g, 1.14 mmol) were stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. After the reaction was complete, water (50 mL) was added, the precipitated crystals were filtered off, and the filter residue was extracted with water/chloroform. After the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtration and concentration gave crystals that were dissolved in toluene (5 mL), to which p-toluenesulfonic acid hydrate (0.43 g, 2.26 mmol) was added and this was stirred at reflux for 2 hours. After the solvent was concentrated at reduced pressure, water (5 mL) was added and the solid obtained was filtered off, and after washing with water, drying at reduced pressure at 50° C. yielded the title compound (95 mg, 28.5% yield) as a light yellow solid.
