Procedure

The mixture of 3-[2-(4-bromo-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylcarbamoyl]-2-aza-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.7 g, 4 mmol), acetic acid (24 μl), and ammonium acetate (1.54 g, 20 mmol) in xylene (20 ml) was heated at 140° C. for 20 hours. The mixture was quenched with saturated sodium carbonate solution, and extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase was washed with water and brine, and was dried with sodium sulfate. Concentration and purification by flash column chromatography (hexanes/EtOAc) gave 3-[5-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-2-aza-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.21 g). m/z: 417.9 (M+H)+.
