Procedure
Ethyl 2-methyl-4-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate (C52) [prepared in an analogous manner to C63 in Preparation P2, by employing tetrahydrofuran-2-carbonyl chloride as starting material] (0.4 mol) was converted to ethyl 1-amino-2-methyl-4-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylate (C53) using the general method for synthesis of C64 in Preparation P2. In this case, due to enhanced water-solubility, extraction was carried out with a mixture of ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran. The isolated material was judged by proton NMR analysis to be a 3:1 mixture of C53 and its regioisomer ethyl 1-amino-2-methyl-5-(tetrahydrofuran-2-yl)-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylate. The mixture was subjected to reaction with formamide and formamidine acetate, as described for the synthesis of P2 in Preparation P2. After the reaction was cooled to room temperature, it was partitioned between water and a mixture of ethyl acetate and tetrahydrofuran. The extracts were concentrated in vacuo, dissolved in a small volume of ethyl acetate, and the product was extracted into aqueous potassium carbonate solution. Adjustment of the aqueous layer to a mildly acidic pH resulted in precipitation of the product. Additional product was obtained by evaporating the aqueous layer to dryness, triturating the residue with methanol and filtering. The filtrate was treated with a small amount of water, and the methanol was removed in vacuo. Additional product precipitated from the aqueous residue. Combined yield: 13.5 g, 61 mmol, 15%. LCMS m/z 221.1 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 11.71 (br s, 1H), 7.81 (s, 1H), 5.33 (dd, J=6.8, 6.8 Hz, 1H), 3.87-3.93 (m, 1H), 3.70-3.76 (m, 1H), 2.46 (s, 3H), 2.04-2.18 (m, 3H), 1.85-1.96 (m, 1H).
