Procedure
To a solution of 1-(2-(((3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)amino)methyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1-cyclohexylethanol (26 mg; 0.043 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (0.7 mL) was added sodium hydride (11 mg; 0.275 mmol; 60% dispersion in mineral oil). After stirring for 30 minutes at room temperature, iodomethane (30 uL; 0.485 mmol) was added. The reaction was stirred for 16 hours. More sodium hydride (12 mg; 0.3 mmol; 60% dispersion in mineral oil) and iodomethane (30 uL; 0.485 mmol) were added. After 1 hour more sodium hydride (12 mg; 0.3 mmol; 60% dispersion in mineral oil) was added. After 30 minutes, iodomethane (30 uL; 0.485 mmol) was added. The reaction was stirred for 2 hours. The reaction was quenched with aqueous 2N hydrochloric acid (6 drops). The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and filtered over sodium sulfate/silica plug. Then the solution was concentrated. The residue was purified by 4 g RediSep column (Teledyne Isco Inc., Lincoln Nebr.) (eluted with 5-25% ethyl acetate in heptane) to give 19 mg (71% yield) of a colorless gum.
