Procedure

5,6-Dichloro-2-(2-trifluoromethyl-[1,3]dioxolan-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole (0.37 g; 1.1 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (6 mL), treated with 60% NaH in mineral oil 9.14 g; 3.5 mmol) and stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere for 20 minutes. Subsequently, 2-(Bromomethyl)pyridine hydrobromide (0.44 g; 1.7 mmol) was added to the reaction mixture and stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (25 mL) and diethyl ether (25 mL), washed with water (30 mL) and brine (3×30 mL), then dried over Na2SO4. The concentrated crude material was purified by column chromatography (SiO2; 50% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to yield the title compound as an off-white solid.
