Procedure
Under nitrogen atmosphere, to a solution of methyl 9-chloro-1-(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-6-carboxylate (0.10 g, 0.26 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1.3 mL) was added cyclopropyl magnesium bromide (1M solution in tetrahydrofuran, 1.3 mL, 1.30 mmol) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture was quenched by aqueous saturated ammonium chloride, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a 30% ethyl acetate/n-hexane mixture. The desired fractions were concentrated in vacuo. The residual oil was crystallized from ethyl acetate/n-hexane to give the title compound as a colorless crystal (50.1 mg, 0.11 mmol, 44%).
