Reaction Steps

A mixture of 7.7 parts of 2-amino-N-[2-[4-[[1-[(4-fluorophenyl)-methyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]amino]-1-piperidinyl]ethyl]benzamide, 20 parts of acetic acid anhydride and 80 parts of water was stirred for 4 hours at 100° C. Water was added and the whole was alkalized with ammonium hydroxide. The product was extracted with trichloromethane. The extract was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was crystallized from 4-methyl-2-pentanone. The product was filtered off and recrystallized from acetonitrile, yielding 7.7 parts of 2-(acetylamino)-N-[2-[4-[[1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]amino]-1-piperidinyl]ethyl]benzamide; mp. 170.9° C. (compound 51).
