Participants

Reaction Steps

1.81 g (4 mmol) of 4-({[(4-chloro-2-methylphenyl)amino]carbonyl}amino)-1-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-1H-imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (Example 20A) are dissolved in 16 ml of absolute DMF, and 1.94 g (12 mmol) of N,N-carbonyldiimidazole are added. The reaction mixture is stirred at RT for 1.5 h and, after addition of 144 μl of water, stirred at RT for 10 min. Then 366 mg (6 mmol) of 2-aminoethanol are added, and the mixture is stirred at RT for 1 h. The reaction mixture is mixed with saturated sodium chloride solution and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts are washed once each with 10% strength citric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, water and saturated sodium chloride solution, dried with magnesium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue from evaporation is purified by chromatography on silica gel with dichloromethane/methanol as eluent.
