4-(Trifluoromethyl)benzoyl chloride → N-[2-(1H-Imidazol-2-yl)ethyl]-2-[[4-(trifluoromethyl)-benzoyl]amino]benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

The titled compound was prepared substantially in accordance with the method detailed in Example 11 using 2.00 g (0.00869 mol) of 2-amino-N-[2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-ethyl]benzamide, prepared as in Example 6A, and 3.62 g (0.01738 mol) of p-trifluoromethylbenzoyl chloride with the exception that removal of ethyl acetate provided a solid. This solid was recrystallized from ethyl acetate containing a small amount of methanol to provide 3.00 g of the desired titled compound (m.p. 207°-215° C.).
