Procedure

5-(Benzyloxy)-2-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one (450 mg, 2.081 mmol) and 1H-benzimidazol-4-amine (279 mg, 2.095 mmol) were taken up in 40% HOAc/H2O (10 ml) in a microwave vial. The vial was sealed and the mixture heated to 140° C. for 30 min by microwave irradiation. The reaction was incomplete by LC/MS. The mixture was heated to 200° C. for 30 min by microwave irradiation. The reaction was incomplete by LC/MS. The mixture was heated to 170° C. for 1 h by microwave irradiation. The mixture was concentrated. The crude material was purified by preparative reversed-phase HPLC (30×150 mm Waters Sunfire (0.1% TFA), 5-35% ACN/water over 20 min at 50 mL/min, 2 injections). Fractions containing each compound were pooled separately then applied to separate Phenomenex Strata-X—C ion exchange columns (5 g). Each column was washed with H2O and MeOH (discard) then with 10% concentrated NH4OH in MeOH (collect). The collected fractions for each were concentrated separately to give the title compounds below: 1-(1H-benzimidazol-4-yl)-5-(benzyloxy)-2-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one: tan solid LC/MS rt=1.24 min, 1H NMR (500 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ 12.90 (bs, 1 H), 8.33 (s, 1 H), 7.72 (bs, 1 H), 7.49 (bs, 1 H), 7.41-7.25 (m, 7 H), 6.26 (s, 1 H), 4.94 (s, 2 H), 1.92 (s, 3 H). 1-(1H-benzimidazol-4-yl)-5-hydroxy-2-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one: tan solid, LC/MS rt=0.47 min, 1H NMR (500 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ 12.88 (bs, 1 H), 8.32 (s, 1 H), 7.70 (d, J=8.06 Hz, 1 H), 7.38-7.25 (m, 3 H), 6.25 (s, 1 H), 1.92 (s, 3 H).
