Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(2-hydroxymethylthiophen-3-yl)-5-ethyl-4-(3-pyridyl)imidazole dihydrochloride (212 mg) and manganese oxide (2 g) in tetrahydrofuran (15 ml) was refluxed for one hour. The reaction mixture was filtered and washed with tetrahydrofuran, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent: chloroform:methanol=30:1→20:1) to obtain 2-(2-formylthiophen-3-yl)-5-ethyl-4-(3-pyridyl)imidazole (93 mg) as orange crystal.
