The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (40 ml) and washed with water (40 ml). Organics were separated, dried over sodium sulphate, and solvent evaporated under reduced pressure to yield product 4-benzyloxy-2-methanesulfonyl-6-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine (93 mg). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.28 (s, 1H), 8.25 (d, 1H), 7.80 (d, 1H), 7.68 (t, 1H), 7.48 (d, 2H), 7.41 (m, 3H), 7.32 (s, 1H), 5.59 (s, 2H), 3.40 (s, 3H).
