Reaction Steps

Bromomethylmagnesium (3M in ether, 1.924 mL) was added to a solution of ethyl {2-[4-(1-ethyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-3-yl)phenoxy]-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl}acetate (220 mg) in THF (40 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature under a dry atmosphere (CaCl2 tube) for 3 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluted with 0%-50% EtOAc in hexane) to give 1-ethyl-3-(4-{[1-(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]oxy}phenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (130 mg) as white crystals.
