Triethylamine → N-[5-[(2-Chloro-4-pyrimidinyl)ethynyl]-2-(methyloxy)phenyl]-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To an oven-dried flask under N2 was added 2,4-dichloropyrimidine (860 mg, 5.76 mmol), anhydrous degassed TH F (100 mL), dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)-palladium(II) (81 mg, 0.12 mmol), copper(I) iodide (13 mg, 0.07 mmol), and triethylamine (1.26 g, 13 mmol). After heating the reaction at 60° C. for 30 min, N-[5-ethynyl-2-(methyloxy)phenyl]-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide (560 mg, 2.30 mmol) was added dropwise as a solution in THF (10 mL) and the resulting mixture was allowed to heat overnight. The crude reaction mixture was adsorbed to silica gel and purified by column chromatography (0-10% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford the desired product (0.68 g, 42%) as an off white solid. ESIMS (M+H)+=356.
