Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of tert-butyl [3-(4-bromo-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]acetate from Step A (250 mg, 0.609 mmol) and triethylamine (0.85 mL, 6.09 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) was added bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (1) chloride (86 mg, 0.122 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at reflux under an atmosphere of carbon monoxide (ca. 1 atm) for 48 h, then partitioned between CHCl3 (20 mL) and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (5 mL). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with a gradient of hexane:EtOAc—100:0 to 60:40, to give the title compound. MS: m/z=412 (M+23).
