Procedure

To a solution of [3-(5-ethyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-yl)-cyclohexyl]-carbamic acid benzyl ester (0.1 g, 0.25 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) were added Cs2CO3 (0.17 g, 0.51 mmol) and 60 mg (0.30 mmol) of 2-cyanobenzyl bromide as a solution in 3 mL of DMF. After stirring at room temperature for 17 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with water (10 mL) then extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined extracts were dried with MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 1% MeOH in CH2CH2 to give {3-[3-(2-cyano-benzyl)-5-ethyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-yl]-cyclohexyl}-carbamic acid benzyl ester (70 mg, 54% yield). 1H-NMR (CDCl3): δ 7.73 (m, 1H), 7.49 (m, 1H), 7.34 (m, 6H), 7.13 (m, 1H), 6.89 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 6.69 (m, 1H), 6.19 (m, 1H), 5.94 (m, 1H), 5.06 (s, 2H), 4.73 (m, 1H), 4.07 (m, 2H), 3.58 (m, 1H), 2.79 (m, 1H), 2.02 (m, 2H), 1.87 (m, 1H), 1.68 (m, 2H), 1.51 (m, 2H), 1.38 (t, 3H, J=7.2 Hz), 1.16 (m, 1H). MS: calculated for C30H31N5O3+H 510.3; found: 510.5.
