A solution of 2-butyl-5-cyano-4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)imidazole (Example 8, 1.7 g) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was treated with a solution of potassium tert-butoxide (0.97 g) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes then a solution of N-triphenylmethyl-5-[4'-(bromomethyl)biphenyl-2-yl]tetrazole (Example 12, 6.0 g) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature under nitrogen atmosphere for 18 hours. The resulting suspension was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with chloroform hexane (90:10) to give the title compound in its triphenylmethyl-protected form. The triphenylmethyl protecting group was removed by refluxing in methanol for 24 hours. Evaporation gave a residue that was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a gradient of ethyl acetate-hexane (50:50) to ethyl acetate. Evaporation of solvents gave a gum that was redissolved in dichloromethane and evaporated to give the title compound as a solid foam. MS (FAB, thioglycerol) 470 (m+Na-1), 448 (m).
