Participants

Reaction Steps

1.5 g (3.08 mmol) of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-{3-[4-(3-acetylaminophenyl)piperidin-1-yl]propyl}-1H-benzimidazole obtained in Example 4 was dissolved in 30 ml of methanol, and 10 ml of 5N—HCl aqueous solution was added to the resulting solution, followed by mixing the solution at 50° C. for 3 hours. The resulting solution was concentrated under a reduced pressure and 60 ml of water was added thereto. Then, pH of the solution was adjusted to 8 or more. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethylacetate (80 ml×2) being washed with water and a sodium hydroxide solution, and then the combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and filtered. The solvent was removed under a reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was refined by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethylacetate=1/3) to obtain 1.19 g (yield 87%) of the title compound.
