Diisopropylethylamine → 5-bromo-N-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)pyrimidin-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-bromopyrimidin-4-amine (344 mg, 1.977 mmol), 6-methoxypyridin-3-ylboronic acid (907 mg, 5.93 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (1.376 mL, 7.91 mmol) and anhydrous copper (II) acetate (539 mg, 2.97 mmol) in dichloromethane (2 mL) was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solid was filtered off and washed with CH2Cl2. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with 50% EtOAc/hexanes to give 5-bromo-N-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)pyrimidin-4-amine (36 mg, 0.128 mmol, 6.48% yield). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.55 (s, 1H); 8.46 (s, 1H); 8.28 (s, 1H); 7.85 (dd, J=8.77, 2.48 Hz, 1H); 6.98 (s, 1H); 6.80 (d, J=8.92 Hz, 1H); 3.95 (s, 3H). m/z (ESI, +ve ion) 281.0 (M+H)+.
