Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl 4-(5-((S)-1-(((R)-tert-butylsulfinyl)amino)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethyl)pyrimidin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (302 mg, 0.540 mmol) was stirred in 4 M HCl in 1,4-dioxane (3 mL)/MeOH (3 mL) at room temperature for 1 hour. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between saturated NaHCO3 and EtOAc. The organic phase was extracted a second time with EtOAc. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(2-(piperazin-1-yl)pyrimidin-5-yl)ethanamine (190 mg, 0.535 mmol, 99% yield) with ˜88% e.e. Further purification by chiral SFC gave (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(2-(piperazin-1-yl)pyrimidin-5-yl)ethanamine (123.7 mg, 0.348 mmol, 71.2% yield) with ˜99% e.e.
