Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 1-(3-chloropropyl)-4-methoxy-2-[(2-methoxy-4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-5-yl)amino]-1H-benzimidazole-7-carboxylate (878.9 mg, 2.03 mmol) and potassium carbonate (0.84 g, 6.08 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (9.0 mL) was stirred at 70° C. for 16 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture at room temperature and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water (×3) and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The Precipitated pale yellow solid was collected by filtration, washed with diisopropyl ether to give the title compound (720.7 mg, 1.81 mmol, 89%) as a pale yellow solid.
