Ammonia → 6-(4-Fluorophenyl)pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To an ammonia solution in methanol (5 ml of a 6 M solution) was added 4-chloro-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine (26 mg, 0.1 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. After concentration under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography, the mobile phase being a mixture of methanol and dichloromethane, in a volume ratio of 1:30, yielding the title compound (20 mg, yield 83%) as a white solid which was characterised by its mass spectrum as follows: MS (m/z): 241 ([M+H]+, 100).
