Reaction Steps

1,3-Dimethyl-5-(2-oxo-propyl)-1,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-2-one was diluted with toluene (30 mL) and treated with 3-methylbenzaldehyde (0.82 mL) and piperidine (0.3 mL). The mixture was placed in an oil bath set to a temperature of 145° C. and the flask was fitted with a pressure equalizing funnel containing 4 Å molecular sieves and equipped with a condenser. After 18 hours the mixture was allowed to cool and was concentrated. Chromatography on silica gel afforded 5-(1-Acetyl-2-m-tolyl-vinyl)-1,3-dimethyl-1,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-2-one (1.077 g).
