Reaction Steps

To a rapidly stirred mixture of 4-bromo-2-fluoro-benzamidine hydrochloride (9.84 g, 38.8 mmol), potassium hydrogen carbonate (15.6 g, 154.8 mmol), THF (98 mL) and water (16 mL) at reflux was added a solution of 2-bromo-1-(2-isopropyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-yl)-ethanone (9.0 g, 38.8 mmol) in THF (19 mL) over 15 min. The resulting mixture was stirred for 18 h at reflux before concentrating in vacuo. The resultant residue was treated with water and the solid formed collected by filtration, washed (water, then 1:1 diethyl ether:cyclohexane then diethyl ether) to give 5-[2-(4-Bromo-2-fluoro-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl]-1-isopropyl-1H-[1,2,4]triazole as a brown solid (10.1 g, 74%). 1H NMR δ (ppm) (CDCl3): 8.21-8.14 (1H, m), 7.90 (1H, s), 7.80 (1H, s), 7.47-7.38 (2H, m), 7.26 (1H, s), 5.91 (1H, br, s), 1.59 (6H, d, J=6.63 Hz).
