To a solution of 2-(5-{4-[1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopropyl]phenyl}-1-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine-4-carbonitrile (30 mg, 0.09 mmol; Example 17, part A) in anhydrous DMF (2 mL) at 0° C. was added 60% NaH (6 mg, 0.136 mmol). After stirring for 10 minutes, MeI (10 μL, 0.136 mml) was added. The reaction mixture was warmed up to r.t. and stirred for 3 hr. It was then purified by ISCO flash column chromatography (MeOH/DCM=0-5%) to give the title product which was used for next step. [M+H] Calc'd for C21H20N4O, 345. Found, 345.
