Procedure

To a solution of ethyl 4-[2-{[2-bromo-4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]amino}-4-chloro-7-(1-ethylpropyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]butanoate (1.37 g, 2.32 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (15.0 mL) was added lithium borohydride (151.5 mg, 6.96 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hr. The reaction mixture was warmed to 60° C. and stirred for 24 hr. After cooling, the reaction mixture was quenched with water at 0° C. and extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with a 0-20% ethyl acetate/n-hexane gradient mixture to give the title compound as a colorless powder (558.0 mg, 1.02 mmol, 44%).
