A stirred mixture of 2-styryl-1H-benzimidazole (220 mg, 1 mmol), 2-bromothiazole (328 mg, 2 mmol), potassium carbonate (138 mg, 1 mmol), copper bronze (20 mg) and nitrobenzene (10 ml) was heated to reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere for 7 h. The cooled reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (150 ml) and filtered through a pad of celite. The filtrate was washed consecutively with water (50 ml), and brine (50 ml), dried (magnesium sulfate) and concentrated to dryness. Column chromatography (silica gel, 100 g; n-hexane/ethyl acetate (9/1 to 3/1)) gave 199 mg of the titled compound as an orange oil, which was solidified on standing at room temperature. Recrystallization from isopropyl ether gave 117 mg (39%) of the titled compound as colorless crystals.
