4-(Prop-2-enyl)-2-[(4-chlorophenoxy)methyl]-1-[3-[1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-yl]propyl]benzimidazole → 4-(Propyl)-2-[(4-chlorophenoxy)methyl]-1-[3-[1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-yl]propyl]benzimidazole

Reaction Steps

In a 50 ml sinfle neck round bottom flask, under a nitrogen atmosphere, 4-(prop-2-enyl)-2-[(4-chlorophenoxy)methyl]-1-[3-[1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-yl]propyl]benzimidazole (100 mg, 0.19 mmol) was added to ethyl acetate (4 ml). To this solution was added 10% palladium on activated carbon (100 mg), followed by the addition of a hydrogen balloon. The reaction mixture was stirred for three hours at room temperature, then filtered through a bed of CELITE™. The desired title product was further purified by radial chromatography.
