Reaktionsschritte

A solution of (3Z)-1-cyclopropyl-4-(dimethylamino)-3-[2-(methylsulfanyl)pyrimidin-4-yl]but-3-en-2-one (3) (200 mg, 0.721 mmol), formamidine acetate (75 mg, 0.721 mmol), and K2CO3 (299 mg, 2.163 mmol) in DMF (6 mL) was stirred at 120° C. for 30 minutes, followed by stifling at rt for 18 hours. The reaction was partitioned between water and EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was back-extracted. The organic extracts were combined, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, then concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by Biotage™ silica gel chromatography [10 g SNAP column, 30% EtOAc/heptane to 100% EtOAc] to obtain the desired product as a white solid (62.5 mg, 29.4% yield). The desired product contained a small amount of an unknown by-product and was carried on to the next step without further purification. MS (ES+): m/z=259.3 (100) [MH+2]. HPLC: tR=1.77 minutes over 3 minutes. Purity: 87.5% [HPLC (LC/MS) at 220 nm].
