Procedure

Combine tert-butyl 4-(4-(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (2.27 g, 6.53 mmol), potassium hydroxide (1.20 g, 3.3 eq) (freshly powdered), and 1-(2-chloroethyl)pyrrolidine hydrochloride (1.34 g, 1.2 eq) in dimethyl sulfoxide (100 mL). Heat the reaction mixture at 50° C. overnight, then allow to cool to room temperature. Dilute with ethyl acetate. Wash with water followed by saturated aqueous sodium chloride. Dry the organics over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filter, and concentrate in vacuo. Purify by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 4:1 dichloromethane:isopropyl alcohol, to give tert-butyl 4-(1-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl)-4-(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate as a thick yellow oil (0.73 g, 25%). MS (ES) m/z=445 [M]+.
