Temperature

0 °C

N1-Trityl-N-phenyl-benzimidazol-5-amine (1.13 g; 2.5 mmol; 1 eq.) was dissolved in THF (5 ml), cooled to 0° C. and treated with lithiumbis(trimethylsilyl)amide 1M in THF (3 ml; 3 mmol; 1.2 eq.). Benzylbromide (3 mmol; 1.2 eq.) was added and stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The mixture was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (5 ml) and treated with TFA (1 ml). After heating to reflux overnight the mixture was poured into saturated NaHCO3-solution and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica using a CHCl3/MeOH gradient. Yield: 0.046 g (6.2%); MS m/z: 300.1 [M+H]+; 1H-NMR, 500 MHz, 1H-NMR (500 MHz, DMSO d6): δ 5.00 (s, 2H); 6.70-6.73 (m, 1H); 6.78-6.79 (m, 2H); 7.06-7.08 (m, 1H); 7.10-7.13 (m, 2H); 7.18-7.21 (m, 1H); 7.29-7.31 (m, 2H); 7.36-7.37 (m, 3H); 7.54 (d, 1H, 3J=8.5 Hz); 8.30 (s, 1H); 12.32 (br s, 1H); HPLC (METHOD [A]): rt 15.47 min (95.1%)
