Procedure

A mixture of isopropyl [2,4-dichloro-7-(1-ethylpropyl)-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl]acetate (Reference Example 10; 1.62 g, 4.53 mmol), N2,N2,4-trimethylpyridine-2,5-diamine (2.06 g, 4.85 mmol), p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (922.9 mg, 4.85 mmol) and xylene (8.0 mL) was stirred at 150° C. for 3 days. After cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted with water and the resulting precipitate was removed by filtration. The filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic layer was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid (×2) and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with a 0-15% ethyl acetate/n-hexane gradient mixture to give a mixture containing the title compound. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC to give the title compound as the trifluoroacetic acid salt. The salt was washed with aqueous saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting solid was recrystallized from n-hexane to give the title compound as a colorless powder (49.7 mg, 0.121 mmol, 2.7%).
