Reaction Steps

2-Fluoro-4-[hydroxy-(3-methyl-3H-imidazol-4-yl)-methyl]-benzonitrile (as described in Step E above) (0.162 g, 0.700 mmol), 3-ethyl-3-(3-hydroxy-phenyl)-1-methyl-azepan-2-one (0.173 g, 0.700 mmol) and KF.Al2O3 (0.208 g) and 18-Crown-6 (0.017 g, 0.064 mmol) were dissolved in anhydrous CH3CN (7 mL) and refluxed under Ar for 24 h. The reaction was filtered, concentrated and purified using SiO2 chromatography (1-3% MeOH/CH2Cl2).
