A mixture of 2.6 parts of 4-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylmethyl]-1,2-benzenediamine, 10 parts of tetramethoxymethane, 0.6 parts of acetic acid and 6.5 parts of dichloromethane was stirred over weekend at room temperature. After evaporation, the residue was treated with ammonium hydroxide. The product was extracted with dichloromethane. The extract was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol (90:10 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated. The residue was further purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane, methanol and methanol, saturated with ammonia, (90:5:5 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated. The residue was dried in vacuo, yielding 1 part (32.8%) of 5-[(1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylmethyl]-2-methoxy-1H-benzimidazole; mp. 109.5° C. (compound 115).
