Piperazine → 2-Chloro-4-(4-(methylsulfonyl)piperazin-1-yl)furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a flask was added 2-chloro-4-(piperazin-1-yl)furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine, hydrochloride salt (0.325 g, 1.18 mmol, prepared using A from 2,4-dichlorofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidine [Ark Pharm] with piperazine), DCM (7 mL), pyridine (7.00 mL) and MsCl (0.101 mL, 1.29 mmol). The mixture was stirred overnight at rt. The mixture was warmed to about 35° C. and stirred for about 5 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue dissolved in DCM (20 mL). The organics were washed with water (about 20 mL) and with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (about 20 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography with an elution gradient EtOAc/hexanes (50 to 75%) to give 2-chloro-4-(4-(methylsulfonyl)piperazin-1-yl)furo[3,2-d]pyrimidine (0.162 g, 43%): LC/MS (Table 2, Method a) Rt=1.11 min; MS m/z 317.2 (M+H)+.
