Product 1

HCID 533023444-Bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine

Conditions

Temperature
150 °C

Procedure

The 2-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-4-ol (328 mg, 2.0 mmol) and PBr3 (0.188 mL, 2.0 mmol) were mixed and heated at 150° C. for 3 h. The reaction was cooled down and quenched with ice water, extracted with DCM (20 mL×2) to yield the titled compound. The organic phase was concentrated and crude material was purified by preparative TLC with 20% Acetone:Hexane to yield titled compound.
