Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(2-keto-1-benzimidazolinyl)piperidine (1.3 g; 5.98 mmol) in acetonitrile was added diphenyl N-cyanocarbonimidate (1.56 g; 6.55 mmol; 1.1 equiv). The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 48 h under nitrogen atmosphere and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was suspended in ethyl acetate (50 mL) and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate (50 mL) and stirred overnight at room temperature. The solid was collected by filtration and dried to give N-cyano-4-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-1-yl)-piperidine-1-carboximidic acid phenyl ester (1.85 g; 85%) as a white solid.
