Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

NaH (60%) (60 mg, 1.5 mmol) was added into a solution of dichloro-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-1H-benzoimidazole. 5,6-Dichloro-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethyl)-1H-indole (269 mg, 1 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) at 0° C. The resulting mixture was stirred at 0° C. for half hour. 1-[4-(bromomethyl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrol (354 mg, 1.5 mmol) was then added to the reaction mixture at 0° C. The reaction temperature was raised to 25° C. and then the reaction mixture was stirred for 18 hours. NH4Cl (aq.) was added and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, then dried over anhydrous MgSO4. The solvent was distilled out under reduced pressure. Column chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc/hexanes (0% to 70%) yielded the title compound as a yellow solid.
