Procedure

A solution of methyl 4-(3-methylbenzyl)piperidine-4-carboxylate hydrochloride salt (142 mg, 0.5 mmol), 1-(4-cyanobenzyl)-5-chloromethylimidazole hydrochloride salt (135 mg, 0.5 mmol; Example 52, Step D), and diisopropylethylamine (0.26 mL, 1.5 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (5 mL) was heated under reflux overnight. The resultant mixture was concentrated under vacuum, and the residue was partitioned between saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and ethyl acetate. The organic extract was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was subjected to column chromatography on silica gel eluting with 5% methanol in chloroform. After collection and concentration of appropriate fractions, the residue was recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane to provide the title compound as white solid.
