Procedure

To a solution of ethyl 1-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(methylthio)-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate (0.49 g, 1.26 mmol) in anhydrous THF (10 mL) at room temperature, LiBH4 (2M in THF, 3.2 mL, 6.4 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. H2O and EtOAc were added. The organic phase was separated, washed with 5% NaHCO3, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated in vacuo to give (1-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(methylthio)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methanol (0.41 g).
