The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and diluted with water. After the addition of trichloromethane, the layers are separated. The aqueous phase is extracted with trichloromethane. The combined organic phases are washed with water, dried, filtered and evaporated. The oily residue is purified by column-chromatography over silica gel using trichloromethane and methanol (90:10 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions are collected and the eluent is evaporated. The residue is crystallized from 2,2'-oxybispropane. The product is filtered off and dried, yielding 1-{3-[4-(diphenylmethyl)-1-piperazinyl]propyl}-1,3-dihydro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-benzimidazol-2-one; mp. 152.7° C.
