Participants

Reaction Steps

4,6-Dichloropyrimidine-5-carbonyl chloride (890 mg, 4.21 mmol, prepared according to E. V. Tarasov et al. Synlett 2000, 5, 625-626) was dissolved in dichloromethane (3 ml) and TEA (587 μl, 4.21 mmol) was added. To this solution, 3-fluoro-4-methoxyaniline (594 mg, 4.21 mmol) dissolved in 3 ml dichloromethane was added dropwise and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. The reaction mixture was then diluted with dichloromethane, washed with 4% sodium bicarbonate solution, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated. The crude was purified using SP1® Purification System (0%-40%, hexane-ethyl acetate) to give 720 mg (56% yield) to the title compound as an oil.
