Procedure

2-(1-{5-[2-(tert-Butyldimethylsilanyloxy)-ethyl]-imidazol-1-yl}-2-hydroxy-2-methyl-propyl)-benzonitrile (1.5 g, 3.75 mmol) is dissolved in THF (15 mL). Concentrated sulfuric acid (0.80 mL, 15.03 mmol) and water (0.80 mL) are added and the mixture is stirred at reflux for 24 h. After cooling down, the mixture is basified to pH 10 using 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide and is then extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The combined organic phase is dried over Na2SO4 and concentration in vacuo. The residue obtained is purified by silica gel chromatography (dichloromethane-methanol, 9:1) to give 4-[5-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-imidazol-1-yl]-3,3-dimethyl-isochroman-1-one; HRMS (ESI) m/z 287.1403; [(M+H)+ Calcd for C16H19N2O3: 287.1396]; 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOD) δ ppm 1.26 (s, 3 H), 1.56 (s, 3 H), 3.06 (br. s, 2 H), 3.75-4.18 (m, 2 H), 5.74 (br. s, 1 H), 6.92 (br. s, 1 H), 7.15 (d, J=1.3 Hz, 1 H), 7.57 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 1 H), 7.67 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 1 H), 7.78 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 1 H), 8.24 (d, J=7.3 Hz, 1 H)
