Reaction Steps

2-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-7-hydroxy-1H-benzoimidazole-4-carboxylic acid (1.70 mg, 5.86 mmol) obtained in step 3 was dissolved in methanol, SOCl2 (8.2 ml, 112 mmol) was added dropwise thereto and refluxed for 15 hours. The resulting solution was cooled to room temperature, concentrated under a reduced pressure to remove methanol, and the residue was neutralized with NaHCO3. Then, the neutralized residue was extracted with ethyl acetate and concentrated under a reduced pressure to obtain a residue which was purified by silica gel chromatography to obtain the title compound (1.50 mg, 1.64 mmol) in a yield of 84%.
