Reaction Steps

1-[2-(N-methylamino)ethyl]imidazole was synthesized from the mesylate of 2-(N-Boc-N-methylamono)ethanol, which was allowed to react with imidazole in the presence of LiHMDS. The starting material was prepared by selective protection of amino group with Boc-anhydride in the presence of Al2O3 according to the procedure described in literature (Yadar, V. K.; Ganesh Babu, K. J. Org. Chem. 2004, 69, 577-580).
