Thiazole → 3-(2-Fluorobenzyl)-7-(2-thiazolyl)-3H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of thiazole (0.10 mL, 1.43 mmol) in dry THF (5 mL) at −78° C., under argon was treated with n-BuLi (0.9 mL, 1.6-M in hexanes, 1.43 mmol), stirred for 30 min, treated with a solution of ZnCl2 (1.8 mL, 1-M in Et20, 1.80 mmol) and allowed to warm gradually to room temperature. The mixture was treated with 7-chloro-3-(2-fluorobenzyl)-3H-[1,2,3]triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-5-amine (200 mg, 0.714 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (50 mg), refluxed for 2 h and partitioned between saturated NH4Cl (20 mL) and EtOAc (20 mL). The organic phase was dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo and purified by chromatography [SiO2; iso-hexane:EtOAc (1:1)] to give the title compound (70 mg, 30%) as a cream solid.
