Reaction Steps

To a solution of 9-chloro-1-(6-methoxy-2-methylpyridin-3-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-6-carbaldehyde (673.0 mg, 1.886 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10.0 mL) was added ethylmagnesium bromide (3.0 M solution in diethyl ether, 0.94 mL, 2.829 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hrs. The mixture was quenched with aqueous saturated ammonium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting solid was washed with diisopropyl ether to give the title compound as a colorless solid (702.4 mg, 1.816 mmol, 97%).
