2-(chloromethyl)-6-methyl-5-phenyl-3H,4H-thieno(2,3-d)pyrimidin-4-one → 1-((6-Methyl-4-oxo-5-phenyl-3,4-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)methyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of 3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (100 mg, 0.609 mmol) and potassium tert-butoxide (137 mg, 1.22 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added 2-(chloromethyl)-6-methyl-5-phenylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (177 mg, 0.609 mmol) and the resultant solution was stirred at RT for 2 days. The reaction mixture was quenched with water and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude product as a beige solid (97 mg, 0.232 mmol, 38%). The material was used without further purification.
