1-(2-Fluorophenyl)piperazine → 6-(4-(2-fluorophenyl)piperazine-1-carbonyl)-5-methylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-methyl-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid, (2 g, 9.5 mmol) in DMF (20 mL) was added DIEA (5 mL, 28.5 mmol), 1-(2-fluorophenyl)piperazine (1.7 g, 9.5 mmol), and HATU (4.7 g, 12.3 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (60 mL) and the organic layer was washed successively with sat. NaHCO3 aq. (50 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic layer was separated, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to give crude product as a gummy solid. Purification by flash column chromatography using EtOAc as the eluant afforded the 3.0 g of pure 6-(4-(2-fluorophenyl)piperazine-1-carbonyl)-5-methylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one, (yield: 86%).
