Procedure
1-(1H-Benzimidazol-4-yl)-5-hydroxy-2-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one (30 mg, 0.124 mmol) and 2-chloro-6-fluorobenzyl bromide (20 μl, 0.146 mmol) were combined in DMF (0.5 ml) then heated to 100° C. After 3 h LC/MS indicated the reaction was incomplete. The mixture was cooled to RT and 10 μL of 2-chloro-6-fluorobenzyl bromide was added. The mixture was heated to 100° C. After 1 hr the mixture was cooled to RT and purified directly by preparative reversed-phase HPLC (20×150 mm Waters Sunfire (0.1% TFA), 5-40% ACN/water over 20 min at 20 mL/min). Fractions containing the product were pooled then applied to a Phenomenex Strata-X—C ion exchange column. The column was washed with H2O and MeOH (discard) then with 10% concentrated NH4OH in MeOH (collect). The collected fraction was concentrated to give 1-[1-(2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzyl)-1H-benzimidazol-4-yl]-5-hydroxy-2-methylpyridin-4(1H)-one as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ 8.43 (s, 1 H), 7.66 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 1 H), 7.52-7.29 (m, 6 H), 6.24 (s, 1 H), 5.70 (s, 2 H), 1.90 (s, 3 H). HRMS (ESI) Calc (M+H)=384.0910. Found 384.0913.
