Procedure

To a solution of 5.05 g of 1-(4-cyanobenzyl)-2-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethylimidazole in 350 mL of benzene at 25° was added dropwise 22.8 mL of diisobutylaluminum hydride (0.15M in toluene). The mixture was warmed to 45° and stirred for 16 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured in ice-cold 20% aqueous sulfuric acid. This solution was allowed to warm to 25° and then stirred for 2 hours. The solution was cooled to 0°, neutralized using aqueous sodium hydroxide and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Column chromatography on silica gel (elution: 0-20% ethyl acetate/benzene) provided 3.60 g of 1-(4-formyl-benzyl)-2-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethylimidazole; NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3) δ : 9.96 (s, 1H); 7.47 (A2M2, 4H); 5.26 (s, 2H); 4.42 (s, 2H); 2.54 (t, 2H); 1.64 (quint., 2H); 1.32 (sext., 2H); 0.86 (t, 3H).
