Procedure

To a solution of diisopropylamine (557 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (15 ml) at -70° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere was added 1.64M butyllithium in hexane (3.35 ml). After being stirred at the same temperature for 20 minutes, the mixture was treated with a solution of 8,9-dihydro-10-methylpyrido[1,2-a]indol-6(7H)-one (995 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) over 15 minutes. The mixture was stirred at -70° C. for 30 minutes, and a solution of 1-trityl-1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (1.69 g) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added dropwise over 10 minutes. After the mixture was stirred at -70° C. for further 70 minutes, it was diluted with chilled water, neutralized with an aqueous solution of oxalic acid, and extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. Purification of the residue with silica gel column chromatography (20% ethyl acetate-chloroform) gave 8,9-dihydro-7-[(hydroxy)-(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methyl]-10-methylpyrido-[1,2-a]indol-6(7H)-one (1.85 g)
