Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.0 grams (0.005 mole) of 2,4-diamino-5-[4-(4-trifluoromethylsulfonyloxyphenyl)pentyl]-6-methylpyrimidine (prepared in Step K of this Example), 2.4 grams (0.015 mole) of 3,5-difluorophenylboronic acid, and 0.3 gram (catalyst) of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) in 90 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred, and 3.5 grams (0.025 mole) of potassium carbonate was added in one portion. Upon completion of addition, the reaction mixture was warmed slowly to 115 ° C. where it was maintained for about 40 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and poured into 250 mL of water. The mixture was then extracted with three 1 50 mL portions of ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were washed with three 150 mL portions of an aqueous 10% lithium chloride solution and dried with sodium sulfate. The mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to a residue. The residue was subjected to column chromatography on neutral alumina (deactivated with 6% wt/wt water), using 2-10% methanol in methylene chloride as the eluants. The product-containing fractions were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure, yielding about 0.5 gram of 2,4-diamino-5-[4-[4-(3,5-difluorophenyl)phenyl]pentyl]-6-methylpyrimidine, mp 129°-134° C. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
