Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To N-(5-fluoro-2-hydroxypyrimidin-4-yl)-4-methylbenzamide (200 mg, 0.81 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was added K2CO3 (224 mg, 1.6 mmol), and iodomethane (230 mg, 1.6 mmol). The mixture was stirred and heated to 60° C. for 30 min and then stirred for 16 h at room temperature. The mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and water (H2O). The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated. The crude material was purified by reverse phase chromatography to yield the title compound as a white solid (17 mg, 8%): mp 229-230° C.; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ13.2 (br s, 1H), 8.23-8.15 (br m, 2H), 7.42-7.37 (br m, 1H), 7.30-7.25 (br m, 2H), 3.45 (s, 3H), 2.44 (s, 3H); ESIMS m/z 262 ([M+H]+), m/z 260 ([M−H]−).
