Procedure
A solution of this half-acid half-ester in toluene is added to a refluxing solution of 2-n-butyl-1-(4-carboethoxy-2-chlorobenzyl)imidazole-5-aldehyde and piperidine in toluene. Twice at 1 hour intervals an additional amounts of the half-acid, half-ester is added, and the solution is then refluxed for 17 hours. Evaporation of the toluene and chromatography of the residue over silica gel using 2:3 ethyl acetate-hexane for elution gives the diester of the title product. This diester is hydrolyzed in 2:1 ethanol-water with 5 equivalents of potassium hydroxide for 18 hours and worked up in the usual manner to give the final product.
