Reaction Steps

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.030 g, 0.14 mmol) was added to a solution of 2-(5-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-2-piperidin-4-yl-3H-imidazol-4-yl)-pyridine (0.035 g, 0.10 mmol; prepared as described in Example 11) and furan-2-carbaldehyde (0.0083 mL, 0.10 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours and was filtered and concentrated. HPLC purification eluting with acetonitrile:water gave 0.010 g (23%) of the title compound as a yellow solid. MS (ESP+) m/z 429.1. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.67 (m, 1H), 7.87 (m, 2H), 7.44 (m, 2H), 7.09 (m, 3H), 6.73 (d, 1H, J=3.2 Hz), 6.60 (m, 1H), 6.12 (s, 2H), 4.45 (s, 2H), 3.54 (m, 2H), 3.26 (m, 1H), 3.11 (m, 2H), 2.33 (m, 2H), 2.06 (m, 2H).
