Procedure

Methyl [2-tert-butyl-1-(cyclohexylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-5-yl]carbamate (650 mg, 1.89 mmol) was dissolved in 20 mL of THF at 0° C. under nitrogen. 1M HCl/ether (2.65 mL, 2.65 mmol) was added dropwise and the solution was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min. LiAlH4 (360 mg, 9.45 mmol) was then slowly added and the solution was stirred at rt overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched at 0° C. by addition of MeOH (5 mL) followed by water (10 mL). The solution was diluted with EtOAc and washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution, brine and dried over anhydrous MgSO4. The solvent was evaporated and the product was used directly for Step A without further purification. Yield: 544 mg (96%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-D) δ 1.08 (s, 2H), 1.17 (m, 3H), 1.54 (s, 9H), 1.64 (m, 2H), 1.67 (m, 2H), 1.72 (m, 2H), 2.02 (m, 1H), 2.87 (s, 3H), 4.06 (d, J=7.62 Hz, 2H), 6.60 (dd, J=8.69, 2.25 Hz, 1H), 7.00 (d, J=1.76 Hz, 1H), 7.12 (d, J=8.59 Hz, 1H).
