Procedure

The crude 3-bromomethyl-5-(2-methyl-tetrazol-5-yl)benzo[b]thiophene (0.145 g) in DMSO (0.3 ml) was added to a mixture of sodium cyanide (29.9 mg, 0.6 mmol) in DMSO (0.2 ml) and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 2 h. After cooling, the mixture was poured into water (10 ml) and a brown solid was filtered off, washed with water and dried in a vacuum pistol to leave 73.5 mg. The filtrate was extracted with dichloromethane (3×30 ml) and the combined extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo to leave 44.7 mg. This was combined with the original solid and chromatographed on flash silica, eluting with 20-50% ethyl acetate/petroleum ether to yield 61.5 mg (38%) of the title product as a white solid. δ (CDCl3) 3.99 (2H, s), 4.43 (3H, s), 7.59 (1H, s), 8.00 (1H, d, J=8.5 Hz), 8.19 (1H, dd, J=8.5 and 1.5 Hz), 8.47 (1H, s).
