Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-methyl-2-(3-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)propylthio)imidazole (2.0 g, 7.8 mmol) in acetic acid (8 ml), THF (4 ml) and water (2 ml) was heated at 50° C. for 4 hours. The volatiles were removed by evaporation and the residue azeotroped with toluene to give 2-(3-hydroxypropylthio)-1-methylimidazole (1.3 g, 100%) as an off-white solid. 1H NMR Spectrum: (DMSOd6) 1.68(m, 2H); 2.98(t, 2H); 3.42(t, 2H); 3.57(s, 3H); 4.10(s, 1H); 6.90(d, 1H); 7.20(d, 1H)
