Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-[4-[2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl]butyl]phenol (130 mg) in DMF (4 ml), 60% oily sodium hydride (22 mg) was added under ice cooling. After stirring at room temperature for 30 minutes, (E)-4-chloromethyl-2-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethenyl]oxazole (140 mg) was added under ice cooling. After stirring at 0° C. for 1 hour, then at room temperature overnight, water was added under ice cooling. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with water, and dissolved in a mixture of THF-ethyl acetate. This solution was dried over magnesium sulfate, after which it was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from methanol-ethyl acetate-diethyl ether to yield the titled compound (168 mg) as colorless crystals.
