Participants

Reaction Steps

N4-Cyclohexyl-N2-(4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diamine (93 mg, 0.23 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (3 mL). Acetic acid (0.013 mL, 0.23 mmol) was added followed by formaldehyde (0.017 mL, 0.23 mmol) and sodium cyanoborohydride (14.48 mg, 0.23 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude material was dissolved in few drops of methanol, filtered and purified by preparative HPLC (acidic system) yielding N4-cyclohexyl-6-methyl-N2-(4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diamine (15.00 mg, 15.59%).
