Reaction Steps

Methyl 2,6-di(bis(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)pyrimidine-4-carboxylate Crude methyl 2,6-diaminopyrimidine-4-carboxylate (2.52 g, 15 mmol) was suspended in dry tetrahydrofuran (200 ml) then treated sequentially with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (19.6 g, 90 mmol), triethylamine (16.7 ml, 120 mmol), and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.092 g, 0.75 mmol). This mixture was refluxed gently for 16 h, evaporated, dissolved in diethyl ether, washed with water and brine, dried and evaporated to give a dark red gum. This residue was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 0–18% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether, to give the title compound as an off-white foam (4.58 g, 54%); m/z (APCI+) 569 [MH]+ 100%.
