Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-[2-(3-isopropyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-1-ylmethyl)-1-(3-methyl-butyl)-1H-benzoimidazol-4-yl]-acrylonitrile (100 mg, 0.234 mmol) and 10% Pd-C (10 mg) in THF (2 mL) and methanol (25 mL) was rocked in a Parr shaker under a hydrogen atmosphere (50 psi) for 15 hrs. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate purified by flash chromatography (eluent hexane:ethyl acetate 1:1) to afford 3-[2-(3-Isopropyl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-1-ylmethyl)-1-(3-methyl-butyl)-1H-benzoimidazol-4-yl]-propionitrile (74 mg, 74%) as a white solid:
