Procedure
To 5,6-dichloro-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (317 mg) in DMF (5 mL) was added sodium hydride (71 mg of 60% in oil dispersion). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 min. To the dark green solution was added 2-bromo-2′,4′-dimethoxyacetophenone (382 mg) and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched with water, extracted with EtOAc, and dried over Na2SO4. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (10%-40% EtOAc/hexanes) to yield the title compound as a white solid.
