Procedure

To the flask of Ethyl 2-(2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)propanoate (175 mg, 0.747 mmol) was added 90% aq. EtOH (5 mL) at room temperature, and additionally added NaOH (70 mg). The reaction mixture was stirred for 10 hrs at 40° C. then cooled to room temperature. The mixture was diluted with H2O (25 mL) and acidified with AcOH (4 mL, pH=4) then extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel using CH2Cl2:MeOH (10:1) as eluant.
