Reaction Steps

Mix 1-[(4-cyanobutyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl][1-(4-piperidinyl)]methanone (4.0 g, 12.91 mmol), carbomethoxy methoxy ethylbromide (3.0 g, 15.3 mmol), potassium carbonate (5.29 g, 38.25 mmol) and dimethylformamide (100 mL). Stir and heat and at 90° C. overnight. Allow to cool to room temperature, dilute with water and extract with ethyl acetate (2×). Wash the combined organic phases with water (3×), then brine and dry (MgSO4). Evaporate the solvent in vacuo and purify by chromatography to give the title compound.
