Procedure
To a stirred solution of sodium (0.325 g, 14.2 mmol, 7.0 equivalents) in absolute methanol (10 mL) was added 1-(indol-5-yl)-5-methylbenzimidazole (0.500 g, 2.02 mmol) and cyclohexanone (0.84 mL, 8.08 mmol, 4.0 equivalents), and the resulting reaction solution was heated at reflux under nitrogen for 12 hours. The resulting mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was column chromatographed using silica gel (approximately 25 g) and eluted with 20% ethyl acetate in methylene chloride to afford the title compound (0.160 g, 0.49 mmol, 24%) as a pale yellow foam. Mp, 101.0°-102.0° C.; Rf =0.75 in 5% MeOH in methylene chloride; 1H NMR (CD3OD) d 8.25 (s, 1H), 7.88 (s, 1H), 7.53-7.50 (m, 2H), 7.35-7.33 (m, 2H), 7.21 (br d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.12 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1Hz), 6.14 (br m, 1H), 4.90 (s, 1 exchangeable H), 2.46 (s, 3H), 2.19 (br m, 2H), 1.86-1.75 (m, 2H), 1.75-1.63 (m, 2H); IR (KBr) 2929, 2859, 1615, 1579, 1494, 1447 cm-1.
