Reaction Steps

Five-percent palladium on carbon was added to a solution of 0.320 g of 6-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-1-[4-(2-phenylethenyl)benzyl]benzimidazole in 10 ml of ethanol in a nitrogen atmosphere, and the mixture was stirred in a hydrogen atmosphere for 23 hours. The solid material was separated through filtration, and the filtrate was concentrated to give 6-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-1-[4-(2-phenylethyl)benzyl]benzimidazole (368). This compound was used in the subsequent reaction at once.
