Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → 5-BROMO-2-CHLORO-4-HYDRAZINYLPYRIMIDINE

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 500 mL round bottom flask was charged with 5-bromo-2,4-dichloropyrimidine (13.5 g, 59.2 mmol), hydrazine hydrate (8.8 mL, 181 mmol) and absolute ethanol (300 mL). The resulting solution was refluxed under N2 for 12 h. Work-up: the resulting crystalline solid was collected by filtration. The solid was washed with ethanol (100 mL), and dried to afford 17 g (quantitative) of the product as a yellow solid, which was used in the next step without further purification.
