Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of trans-3-[4-(5,6-dichloro-2-ethyl-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)phenyl]cyclobutanol (step 8, 572 mg, 1.6 mmol), triphenylphosphine (623 mg, 2.4 mmol) and diphenylphosphoryl azide (DPPA) (655 mg, 2.4 mmol) in THF (8 mL) was added diethyl azodicarboxylate (415 mg, 2.4 mmol) at room temperature. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 h, then the mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 mL) and washed with water (100 mL) and brine (100 mL). The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated. Purification by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (2:1) to afford 506 mg (83%) of the title compound as colorless solids: MS (EI) m/z: 385 (M+); 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.84 (1H, br.s), 7.42 (2H, d, J=8.3 Hz), 7.28 (2H, d, J=8.3 Hz), 7.17 (1H, br.s), 3.98–3.88 (1H, m), 3.37–3.25 (1H, m), 2.89–2.75 (2H, m), 2.77 (2H, q, J=7.6 Hz), 2.34–2.23 (2H, m), 1.34 (3H, t, J=7.6 Hz).
