Reaction Steps

To a solution of 9-chloro-1-(2-chloro-4-methoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-6-carbaldehyde (274 mg, 0.728 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was added cyclopropylmagnesium bromide in tetrahydrofuran (1.0 M, 2.2 mL, 2.2 mmol) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 0.5 hr. Aqueous ammonium chloride was added to the reaction mixture at 0° C. and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with a 50-80% ethyl acetate/n-hexane gradient mixture to give the title compound (261.7 mg, 0.57 mmol, 77%) as colorless crystals.
