反応手順

A solution of 4.96 g (42 mmol) of benzimidazole in 250 ml of tetrahydrofuran was cooled under N2 atmosphere to 0° C. and treated sequentially with 2.12 g (44 mmol) of sodium hydride (50% dispersion in oil) and 5.0 ml (42 mmol) of benzyl bromide. The resulting suspension was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h, washed sequentially with water and saturated brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated. The resulting oil was taken up in 75 ml of ethyl acetate, triturated with 300 ml of hexane, and filtered. The mother liquor was concentrated and filtered, and the combined solids were dried in vacuo at 50° C. to give 7.00 g (80%) of the desired compound. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 5.38 (s,2H), 7.2 (m,2H), 7.3-7.4 (m,6H), 7.83 (br d,1H), 7.96 (br s,1H).
