Procedure
To a suspension of 1H-benzotriazole (10.0 g, 83.9 mmol) in water (84 mL) was added pyrrolidine 2 (6.3 mL, 226.6 mmol). After 10 minutes of vigorous stirring at room temperature, formaldehyde 37% aqueous solution was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour, then the precipitate was filtered off, and washed with water to afford 1-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-1H-benzoimidazole as an off-white solid. Yield: 14.58 g (85.9%).
