Procedure

To a stirred suspension of 4-(3-methyl-2-phenyl-butyl)-1-trityl-1H-imidazole (80 mg) at r.t. in ethanol (2 ml) under an argon atmosphere was added 2 N HCl (3 ml). The mixture (suspension) was heated to reflux (turning to a clear light yellow solution when reaching 90° C.) and stirred for 2 hours and 30 minutes, then cooled to r.t. and concentrated to leave a light brown sticky solid. This was taken up in H2O and basified to pH>12 by the addition of 4 N NaOH. The product was extracted with CH2Cl2/MeOH 9:1. The combined organics were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (silica gel; gradient: CH2Cl2→CH2Cl2/MeOH 85:15) to give 4-(3-methyl-2-phenyl-butyl)-1H-imidazole (8 mg) as colorless gum. MS (ISP): 215.4 ([M+H]+)
