Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 0° C. solution of 10.0 g (43.0 mmol) of ethyl 4-chloro-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate and 7.2 mL (51.6 mmol) of triethylamine in 100 mL of dichloromethane is added 4.4 mL (51.6 mmol) of isopropylamine. The reaction solution is stirred at 0° C. for 2 hours then allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate, washed twice with aqueous HCl, twice with water, once with a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate, and brine. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give 11.1 g (quant.) of the title compound as an oil which solidified on standing: mp 159-160° C.
