Procedure

n-Butyl lithium (14.8 mL, 23.7 mmol) was added to a solution of 2-methyl-4-{[1-(trifluoromethyl)cyclopropyl]methyl}-1-trityl-1H-imidazole (7.05 g, 15.8 mmol) in THF (30 mL) at −78° C. After 5 min, a solution of 5-bromoindan-1-one (5 g, 23.7 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was added dropwise to the reaction mixture. The solution was stirred at −78° C. for 2 h. The reaction was quenched with the addition of saturated aqueous NH4Cl. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give a residue. The residue was purified by column chromatography eluting with 0-100% EtOAc/hexanes to give 5-bromo-1-[(4-{[1-(trifluoromethyl)cyclopropyl]methyl}-1-trityl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl]indan-1-ol.
