To a solution of 4-cyano-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (4-bromo-2-cyclohex-1-enyl-phenyl)-amide (as prepared in Example 11, step (g), 50.0 mg, 0.135 mmol) in 2 mL of THF at −78° C. under Ar was added isopropylmagnesium chloride (71 μL, 0.14 mmol, 2.0 M). The resulting mixture was warmed to RT and stirred for 15 min, cooled to −78° C. again. To the mixture was added tert-butyllithium (240 μL, 0.405 mmol, 1.7 M) and the resulting mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 5 min. Acetone (0.40 mL, 0.68 mmol) was then added, and the reaction was warmed to RT and stirred for 1 h under Ar. The mixture was treated with 1 mL of saturated NH4Cl followed by 40 mL of EtOAc and washed with H2O (10 mL), brine (5 mL) and dried (Na2SO4). Removal of the solvent under reduced pressure followed by flash chromatography of the residue on silica gel (1-2% MeOH/DCM) gave 32.1 mg (68%) of the title compound as a white solid. 1H-NMR (CDCl3; 400 MHz): δ 11.88 (s, 1H), 9.58 (s, 1H), 8.29 (d, 1H, J=8.6 Hz), 7.74 (s, 1H), 7.42 (dd, 1H, J=8.6, 2.2 Hz), 7.35 (d, 1H, J=2.2 Hz), 5.87 (m, 1H), 2.23-2.34 (m, 4H), 1.73-1.90 (m, 4H), 1.79 (s, 1H, OH), 1.61 (s, 6H). Mass spectrum (ESI, m/z): Calcd. for C20H22N4O2, 351.2 (M+H), found 351.0.
