A solution of 4-iodo-l-tritylimidazole (commercially available, 5.08 g, 13.7 mmol) in dichloromethane (100 mL) at −10° C. was treated with ethylmagnesium bromide (4.5 mL, 13.7 mmol, 3M in ether) and allowed to react for 45 m. A solution of N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-phenylacetamide, (Intermediate 13) (2.0 g, 11.2 mmol) in dichloromethane was added via syringe at −10° C. and stirred for 16 hours at room temperature. The mixture was quenched with water (50 mL) and a saturated solution of ammonium chloride (50 mL). The residue was isolated in a typical aqueous workup and purified by MPLC with 3 to 5% MeOH:CH2Cl2 to give 2-phenyl-l-(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethanone, (Intermediate 14) as a solid, (4.65 g).
