Butyllithium (1.6M in hexanes) (4.24 mL, 6.78 mmol) was added dropwise to 2-methyl-1-trityl-1H-imidazole (Intermediate 85) (2.0 g, 6.16 mmol) in THF (30 mL) cooled to −78° C. over a period of 20 minutes under nitrogen. The resulting dark red solution was stirred at −78° C. for 30 minutes then a solution of 4-Chlorobenzaldehyde (0.867 g, 6.16 mmol) in THF (10 mL) added dropwise. The reaction was allowed to warm slowly to 0° C. then quenched with saturated NH4Cl (50 mL) and extracted with TBME (2×). The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, concentrated by evaporation then purified by flash silica chromatography, elution gradient 20 to 30% EtOAc in isohexane. Pure fractions were evaporated to dryness to afford 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ethanol (1.810 g, 63.1%) as a colourless solid.
