3,5-Dimethoxyaniline → 1-(6-Chloropyrimidin-4-yl)-3-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-methylurea

Temperature

70 °C

To a stirred solution of 6-chloro-N-methylpyrimidin-4-amine (1 g, 6.965 mmol) in dioxane (10 mL) was added DIPEA (3.6 mL, 20.895 mmol) and triphosgene (0.81 g, 2.786 mmol) under argon atmosphere at 0° C. The resulting mixture was stirred for 1 h at 70° C., and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The resulting mixture was added via cannula to a solution of 3,5-dimethoxyaniline (1.2 g, 8.358 mmol) and DIPEA (1.2 mL, 6.965 mmol) in dioxane (4 mL) under argon atmosphere at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 12 h. After completion of the reaction by TLC (Hexanes:EtOAc, 7:3), reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and a saturated aqueous solution of NaHCO3. The aqueous layer was separated and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL). The combined organic phase washed with brine, dried on Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (Hexanes:EtOAc, 70:30) to afford 1-(6-chloropyrimidin-4-yl)-3-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-methylurea (1.1 g, yield: 50%) as a white solid. 1HNMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ 12.38 (s, 1H), 8.71 (s, 1H), 6.99 (s, 1H), 6.79 (d, 2H), 6.26 (t, 1H), 3.81 (s, 6H), 3.45 (s, 3H); MS (ESI): 323.10 [M+H]+.
