Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-bromophenol (173 mg, 1.00 mmol), 4-chloro-6-(chloromethyl)pyrimidin-2-amine (CAS#: 92311-35-8) (178 mg, 1.16 mmol) and K2CO3 (175 mg, 1.00 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was heated to 100° C. for 12 h. The reaction was cooled to RT, concentrated in vacuo, and the residue taken up in and EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. Purification on normal phase silica gel (EtOAc/petroleum ether) provided 4-((4-bromophenoxy)methyl)-6-chloropyrimidin-2-amine as a white solid.
