Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4.1 g (14.2 mmole) of ethyl 3-acetyl-5-(bromomethyl)-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate, 3.0 g (14.2 mmole) of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine, 2.0 g (14.2 mmole) of potassium carbonate and 75 ml of ethanol is stirred under argon for 16 hours at 25° C. Water (100 ml) is added and the precipitate which forms is collected and washed with water. It is then suspended in 2-propanol and 1 equivalent of hydrogen chloride in 2-propanol is added. The resulting solid is separated and recrystallized twice from a mixture of 2-propanol and water to give ethyl 5-[[4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-1-piperidinyl]methyl]-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate hydrochloride.
