2-Chloromethylbenzimidazole (1.67 g, 10 mmol) was suspended in methanol (34 mL), 28% sodium methoxide methanol solution (9.6 mL, 50 mmol) and water (50 mL) were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 min. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration, and purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform/methanol=100/0 to 93/7) to give the title compound (303 mg, 19%).
