Procedure

To a solution of 1-[5-amino-6-chloro-1-(2-methoxy-ethoxymethyl)-1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl]-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (Intermediate from Example 41, product from Step A) (0.300 g, 0.762 mmol) and propionaldehyde (61.0 μL, 0.838 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.226 g, 1.07 mmol) followed by acetic acid (40.9 μL, 0.762 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 22 h. Molecular sieves (4 Å, 1.2 g) were added, and the reaction was kept at 40-50° C. for 24 h. Over the next 48 h, two additional portions of both propionaldehyde and sodium triacetoxyborohydride were added. The reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (10 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3×35 mL) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine (25 mL), dried, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified (FCC) (10-45% EtOAc/hexanes) to yield the titled compound (0.178 g, 54% yield) as a 1:1 mixture of regioisomers. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 8.83 (s, 1H), 8.76 (s, 1H), 8.15 (s, 2H), 7.63 (s, 1H), 7.55 (s, 1H), 6.94 (s, 1H), 6.76 (s, 1H), 6.03 (s, 4H), 4.42 (br s, 1H), 4.35 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 4H), 4.27 (br s, 1H), 3.65-3.59 (m, 4H), 3.49-3.41 (m, 4H), 3.33 (s, 3H), 3.32 (s, 3H), 3.23-3.12 (m, 4H), 1.82-1.69 (m, 4H), 1.37 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 6H), 1.11-1.01 (m, 6H).
