Reaction Steps

Into a 50-mL round-bottom flask, was placed a solution of methyl 5-(2-((benzyloxy)methyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-2,4-dimethylbenzoate (compound 219.4, 100 mg, 0.30 mmol) in ammonium hydroxide (5%) (30 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h at 60° C. The reaction mixture was extracted with 2×50 mL of dichloromethane, the organic layers combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. This resulted in 80 mg (92%) of the title compound as a light yellow oil.
