Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4,6-dichloro-2-cyclopropylpyrimidine 19 (1.05 g, 5.5 mmol), 3-fluoroazetidine hydrochloride 162 (0.68 g, 6 mmol) and potassium carbonate (2.48 g, 18 mmol) in 1-methoxy-2-propanol (10 ml) is heated at 65° C. for 2 hours. The mitre is cooled, concentrated in vacuo, diluted with dichloromethane and washed three times with water. The combined organic layers are dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to afford 4-chloro-2-cyclopropyl-6-(3-fluoro-azetidin-1-yl)-pyrimidine 163 (1.16 g, 92%) as a yellow oil which is used in the next step without further purification.
