Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(3 Chlorophenyl)-2-phenyl-l-(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethanol, (Intermediate 15) mg; 0.9 mmol) in 57% aqueous Hl (10 mL) and iPrOH (2 mL) was added red phosphorus (280 mg, 9.0 mmol) in a resealable tube was heated at 160° C. for 16 h. The mixture was then cooled to room temperature and poured into ice-water, which was then basified with NaOH and diluted with CHCl3. The residue was isolated in a typical aqueous workup using CHCl3 and purified by MPLC with 5 to 15% MeOH:.CH2Cl2 to give 4-(1-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-phenylvinyl)-1H-imidazole, as a solid, (86 rug), AGN-216677. 1HNMR (CD3OD, 300 MHz) δ 7.71 (s, 1H), 7.37-6.96 (m, 9H), 6.55 (s, 1H).
