Procedure

A mixture of the compound of step 2 (3.6 g, 9.35 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (0.52 g, 2.7 mmol) in toluene (280 ml) was heated to reflux for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The crude mixture was chromatographed on silica gel using ethyl acetate/acetone (98/2) to give pure 3-[1-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-4-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl]pyridine (790 mg, 23%) as a white solid: mp (DSC) 193° C. Anal Calc'd. for C16H12N3SO2F3 : C, 52.30, H, 3.29, N, 11.44, S, 8.73. Found: C, 52.38, H, 3.26, N, 11.30, S, 8.76.
