To a solution of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1H-imidazole 42 (0.512 g, 3.24 mmol) in THF (15 mL) at −40° C. was added n-butyllithium (2.40 mL, 3.84 mmol) (1.6 M in hexanes), stirred at −40° C. for 30 min, cooled to −78° C., and N,N-dimethylformamide (0.325 mL, 4.21 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature over 1 h, stirred at room temperature for 2 h, diluted with EtOAc, washed with water (1×), brine (1×), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The crude product was dissolved in DCM (˜20 mL), diluted with hexanes (˜50 mL), and concentrated to a volume of approximately 30 mL. The solution was cooled to 0° C. and the solid was collected by filtration, washed with hexanes, and dried under high vacuum to give 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde 43. Mass spectrum: calculated for C11H10N2O 186.1; found 187.1 (M++1).
