To a solution of 4-methyl-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde (5.0 g, 45.4 mmol) in anhydrous THF (50 mL) was added diaza(1,3)bicyclo[5.4.0]undecane (DBU, 6.8 mL, 45.4 mmol) and 2-iodopropane (4.5 mL, 45.4 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Water (50 mL) was added. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (1×50 mL) and 2-butanol (2×50 mL). The organic extracts were combined, dried over MgSO4, filtered, evaporated, and dried in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (0-2% MeOH/DCM), affording 4-methyl-1-(propan-2-yl)-1H-imidazole-5-carbaldehyde (691 mg, 10% yield).
