Procedure
Into a 250 ml flask with 4-bromo-2-(fluoromethyl)-6-nitro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (3 g, 10.95 mmol) in N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) (100 mL) was added 1-(bromomethyl)-3-chloro-2-methylbenzene (3.60 g, 16.42 mmol) and potassium carbonate (4.54 g, 32.8 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred 1 h at 80° C., cooled to room temperature and poured into water, extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified on a silica gel cartridge and eluted with a gradient of 0% ethyl acetate/hexanes to 80% over 10 column volumes. The expected compound was collected and evaporated to yield 4-bromo-1-(3-chloro-2-methylbenzyl)-2-(fluoromethyl)-6-nitro-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (1.23 g, 2.98 mmol, 27.2% yield) as a brown solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 2.48 (s, 3H) 5.71 (s, 1H) 5.83 (s, 1H) 5.85 (s, 2H) 6.10 (d, J=7.58 Hz, 1H) 7.05 (t, J=7.83 Hz, 1H) 7.38 (d, J=7.83 Hz, 1H) 8.39 (d, J=2.02 Hz, 1H) 8.67 (d, 1H); LC/MS: MS (ES+) m/e 413 [M+H]+.
