Procedure: To a solution of 3-butyl-4-(4-cyclohexyloxy-phenyl)-6-(piperidin-4-yloxy)-pyridazine dihydrochloride (Example 14, 0.2 mmol, 97 mg) in EtOH (2 mL) was added 1-chloro-2-methyl-2-propanol (0.4 mmol, 44 μL), and potassium carbonate (0.6 mmol, 83 mg). And the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 4 hours. It was then diluted with water/EtOAc. The organic layers were combined, dried, and condensed in vacuo and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (DCM to DCM+10% MeOH) to give a colorless sticky solid, which was dissolved in DCM (2 mL), 1N HCl in ether (2 mL) was added, kept at room temperature for 10 min, condensed, triturated with hexanes to yield 1-{4-[6-butyl-5-(4-cyclohexyloxy-phenyl)-pyridazin-3-yloxy]-piperidin-1-yl}-2-methyl-propan-2-ol dihydrochloride (86 mg, 77% yield). LCMS: m/z 483 [M+1]. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD): δ 7.53 and 7.62 (1H, s), 7.41-7.46 (2H, m), 7.10-7.14 (2H, m), 5.42-5.52 (1H, m), 4.41-4.46 (1H, m), 3.65-3.83 (2H, m), 3.25-3.47 (3H, m), 3.05-3.12 (2H, m), 2.22-2.55 (5H, m), 1.98-2.03 (2H, m), 1.78-1.83 (2H, m), 1.40-1.63 (7H, m), 1.38 (6H, s), 1.22-1.36 (3H, m), 0.81 (3H, t). dried condensed in vacuo the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (DCM to DCM+10% MeOH) to give a colorless sticky solid, which kept at room temperature for 10 min condensed triturated with hexanes

Procedure: To a solution of 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylbenzonitrile (2.00 g, 13.5 mmol) and 1-chloro-2-methyl propan-2-ol (8.85 g, 81.5 mmol) in ethanol (50 mL) was added potassium carbonate (7.5 g, 54 mmol) and water (5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux for 24 h and cooled to room temperature. The precipitated solid was filtered off and washed with water. The solid was dissolved in ethyl acetate (100 mL), washed with water (50 mL), brine (50 mL), and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Removal of solvent gave 4-(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropoxy)-3,5-dimethyl benzonitrile (2.9 g, 97%) as a white solid. at reflux for 24 h The precipitated solid was filtered off washed with water The solid was dissolved in ethyl acetate (100 mL) washed with water (50 mL), brine (50 mL) dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 Removal of solvent

Procedure: (Reference: Ind. Acad. Sci. 1939, 49, 101-4.) A solution of 1-{5-[4-(3,4-dichloro-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyridin-2-yl}-piperazine (155 mg, 0.41 mmol), sodium carbonate (66 mg, 0.62 mmol, 1.5 equiv) and 1-chloro-2-methyl-propan-2-ol (51 μl, 53 mg, 0.50 mmol, 1.2 equiv) in 50% aqueous ethanol (20 ml) under nitrogen atmosphere was heated at reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was then diluted with brine and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml). The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and -concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the residue by flash column chromatography (50% THF/0.5% ammonium hydroxide/hexanes) provided the desired product (100 mg, 54%). at reflux overnight extracted with ethyl acetate (3×25 ml) The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate filtered Purification of the residue by flash column chromatography (50% THF/0.5% ammonium hydroxide/hexanes)
