Methyl iodide → 2-(3-bromophenyl)-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole

참여 물질

반응 단계

2-(3-bromophenyl)-1H-benzimidazole (7.8 g, 28.6 mmol) was completely dissolved in dry THF (300 ml), then NaH 60% m/m (1.49 g, 37.2 mmol) was added portionwise to the clear yellow solution. The light brown suspension was stirred 1 h rt, then CH3I (2.5 ml, 40.0 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred rt overnight. The reaction was quenched with H2O (300 ml), and extracted with EtOAc (2×450 ml). The organic extracts were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated, to afford the compound as a brown-yellow solid (7.4 g, 70%).
