60% NaH in oil (0.91 g, 22.8 mmol) was added to a suspension of 4,5-diphenyl-2-imidazolethiol (2.5 g, 9.9 mmol) in dry THF (80 ml) at room temperature under stirring. After 15 minutes, 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide (2.0 g, 9.9 mmol) was added to the mixture. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 1 hour, then poured into water (500 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was recrystallized (toluene) to give 2-(2-aminoethylthio)-4,5-diphenylimidazole (51.3%): mp 152°-154° C.
