Procedure

To a suspension of 9-chloro-1-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazole-6-carbaldehyde (166 mg, 0.400 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added dropwise ethylmagnesium bromide (3 M solution in diethyl ether, 0.270 mL, 0.810 mmol) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min. The reaction mixture was diluted with aqueous saturated ammonium chloride, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a 20-60% ethyl acetate/n-hexane gradient mixture to give the title compound as a colorless solid (170 mg, 0.381 mmol, 95%).
