Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)-2-methylsulfonylbenzimidazole (0.40 g) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml), and sodium methylate (0.50 g) was added thereto under cooling with ice, followed by stirring for 1 hour. Ice water was added, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate, washing with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution and drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off, and the mixture was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 0.40 g of the desired product as a white powder (m.p. 121-122° C.).
