Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole (70 mg) was added to a solution of 1-(difluoromethyl)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (122 mg) and NaH (25.2 mg) in DMF (3 mL) at 100° C. The mixture was heated at 180° C. for 1 h under microwave irradiation. The reaction mixture was diluted with MeOH and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (NH silica gel, eluted with 0%-50% EtOAc in hexane) to give 1-(difluoromethyl)-3-{4-[(1-methyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)oxy]phenyl}-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one (80 mg) as white crystals.
