Procedure
To a solution of 2-chloro-N-methoxy-N-methylpyrimidine-4-carboxamide (893 mg, 4.43 mmol) in THF (9 mL) at −78° C. under nitrogen atmosphere was added cyclopropyl magnesium bromide (0.5 M in THF, 13.3 mL, 6.64 mmol) dropwise. The solution was warmed to 0° C. and stirred for an additional 30 min. The solution was diluted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried with MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to dryness. Purification on silica gel by flash chromatography (0-100% EtOAc/hexanes) afforded (2-chloropyrimidin-4-yl)(cyclopropyl)methanone (360 mg, 1.97 mmol, 45% yield) as a colorless oil. MS ESI: [M+H]+ m/z 183.1. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.85 (d, J=4.9, 1H); 7.82 (d, J=4.9, 1H), 3.45-3.31 (m, 1H), 1.30 (m, 2H), 1.22 (m, 2H).
