Procedure

1-(2,4-diisopropyldibenzo[b,d]furan-1-yl)-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole (4.7 g, 12 mmol) was dissolved in 100 mL acetonitrile. To the stirred solution fine mixture of KMnO4 (3.8 g, 24 mmol) and 4 g montmorillonite K10 clay was added in small portions and the reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h. At the end, reaction was quenched with MeOH and filtered thru a Celite pad. Crude product was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel with 80% DCM/Hexane to 80% DCM/ethylacetate. 3 g light yellow color oil was isolated. This oil was further purified by reverse phase chromatography. Target compound (1.3 g, 28% yield) was isolated as white solid.
