Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-benzyl-2-chloro-6-methyl-pyrimidine (104 mg, 0.48 mmol), 1-(4-amino-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-methanol (90 mg, 0.48 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1.33 g, 9.5 mmol) in dioxane (4 mL) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (1 mL) was degassed with nitrogen. Palladium(II) acetate (4.3 mg, 0.019 mmol) and 2-dicyclohexylphosphino)bi-phenyl (13.6 mg, 0.038 mmol) were added and the reaction mixture was irradiated in a microwave oven at 200° C. for 30 minutes. [1-(4-Amino-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl]-methanol (43 mg, 0.19 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was irradiated in a microwave oven at 200° C. for another 25 minutes. The reaction mixture was filtered; the filtrate was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and brine, dried with magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by column chromatography on silica eluting with dichloromethane/methanol (14:1 v/v) afforded the title compound as a light yellow solid (93 mg, 52%). MS ISP (m/e): 372.2 [(M+H)+]. Mp 95-98° C.
