Procedure

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (20.2 g) was added to a suspension of 1-{5-[4-(3,4-dichloro-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyridin-2-yl}-piperazine (23.8 g), acetic acid (5.1 mL), and isobutyraldehyde (6.35 mL) in THF (250 mL). The resultant suspension was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours, and then the reaction mixture was diluted with 1N NaOH (1000 mL) and ethyl acetate (450 mL). The layers were separated, and the organic phase was diluted with hexanes (1000 mL). The resultant precipitate was collected by filtration, and the mother liquors were concentrated to 400 mL. The second crop of precipitate was collected and combined with the first crop to provide 1-{5-[5-(3,4,-dichloro-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyridin-2-yl}-4-isobutyl-piperazine (22.5 g). MS m/z 430 (M++1).
