Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 200 mg (0.62 mmol) 2-amino-4-furan-2-yl-6-(2-pyridin-2-yl-ethylsulfanyl)-pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile and 8 mg (0.06 mmol) 4-dimethylaminopyridine in 2 ml pyridine was added dropwise 0.73 ml (6.18 mmol) benzoyl bromide and the reaction mixture stirred at 50° C. for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature and partitioned between water and ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were dried with sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography (1/2 ethyl acetate/hexane then 1/1 ethyl acetate/hexane then ethyl acetate) followed by trituration in ether afforded 100 mg (30%) N-benzoyl-N-[5-cyano-4-furan-2-yl-6-(2-pyridin-2-yl-ethylsulfanyl)-pyrimidin-2-yl]-benzamide as a white crystalline solid. ES-MS m/e (%): 532 (M+H+, 68).
