Procedure

Thionyl chloride (4.0 ml, 54.0 mmol) was added to a solution of (3-imidazol-1-yl-phenyl)-methanol (3.17 g, 17.0 mmol) in DMF (50 ml) and the reaction stirred at room temperature for 40 h. The solvent was evaporated, the residue diluted with DCM and washed with water, neutralised with aqueous sodium bicarbonate (pH 9-10) and then extracted with DCM (3×). The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give 1-(3-chloromethyl-phenyl)-1H-imidazole as an orange oil (5.3 g, crude contaminated with DMF).
