Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-[6-chloro-1-[4-(2-{[(1,1-dimethylethyl)(diphenyl)silyl]oxy}ethyl)phenyl]-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]ethanol (step 4, 590 mg, 0.95 mmol) in DMF (10 ml) was added NaH (45 mg, 1.13 mmol). Then the mixture was added MeI (0.08 ml, 1.23 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The mixture was added water (30 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (100 ml). The organic layer was washed with water (50 ml), brine (50 ml), then dried (Na2SO4). After removal of solvent, the crude product was purified by flash column chromatography eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (3:1) to afford 550 mg (91%) of the title compound as colorless oil.
