Reaction Steps

To a portion of 2-chloro-5-hydroxybenzimidazole (191 mg, 0.75 mmol) in DMF (3 ml) was added sodium hydride (60 mg, 1.5 mmol) under argon at ambient temperature. Ten minutes later 4-chloro-6-methoxy-7-(1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)methoxyquinazoline (200 mg, 0.62 mmol), (prepared as described for the starting material in Example 10), was added and the mixture heated at 100° C. for 2 hours. More 2-chloro-5-hydroxybenzimidazole (30 mg, 0.12 mmol) and sodium hydride (11 mg, 0.28 mmol) were then added as the reaction was found to be incomplete. The heating was continued for an additional 1 hour. Work-up using ethyl acetate and a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride followed by drying of the organic phase (MgSO4) and evaporation of the solvent gave a crude product which was adsorbed on alumina using dichloromethane/methanol and purified by flash chromatography using neutral alumina and dichloromethane/methanol (98:2) as the eluent. Evaporation of the solvent and trituration in ether gave 4-(2-chloro-1H-benzimidazol-6-yloxy)-6-methoxy-7-((1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)methoxy)quinazoline (46 mg, 16%).
