HCID 470034475-Bromo-1,3-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-2H-benzimidazol-2-one

Procedure

Iodomethane (2.41 g) was added to a suspension of 5-bromo-1,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-2-one (1.65 g) and potassium tert-butoxide (1.91 g) in DMA (20 ml). The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The mixture was poured to 2.5N aqueous HCl (80 ml) and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and then concentrated in vacuo. Heptane (50 ml) was added to the residue and the mixture was filtered. The residue was washed with diethyl ether and dried in vacuo to give the title compound (1.1 g) as a light brown solid. MS (m/e)=241.1 [M+H+].
