Procedure

To a solution of 1-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethanone (200 mg, 1.82 mmol) in DMF (4 mL) was introduced triethylamine (0.38 mL, 2.72 mmol) and trityl chloride (506.34 mg, 1.82 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. Aqueous brine solution (5 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and the product extracted with EtOAc (2×10 mL). The combined organics were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (Isolute, 1-10% methanol gradient in DCM) to give the title intermediate as a clear oil: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) delta 2.55 (3H, s), 7.18-7.06 (6H, m), 7.40-7.29 (9H, m), 7.44 (1 H, d, J=1.3 Hz), 7.58 (1H, d, J=1.4 Hz); LC-MS: m/z=+375.10 (M+Na)+.
