Acetic Acid → HCID 178517559, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of methylpyrimidine-5-carbimidate (2.00 g, 14.5 mmol) in methanol (20 mL) was added 2-amino-6-bromobenzoic acid (3.1 g, 14.5 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux where it stirred for 16 h under the nitrogen atmosphere. At the conclusion of this period, acetic acid (2.72 ml, 47 mmol) was added drop wise. Upon completion of addition, methanol was evaporated under reduced pressure to yield a residue. The residue was triturated with ether (100 mL), ethyl acetate (50 mL) and the resulting solid was dried to yield 5-bromo-2-(pyrimidin-5-yl)quinazolin-4-ol (1.2 g, 27%) as an off-white solid. The crude product was used without further purification. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6, δ): 7.64 (dd, J=7.2 Hz, 8.4 Hz, 1H); 7.73-7.75 (m, 2H); 9.35 (s, 1H); 9.46 (s, 2H); 12.9 (br s, 1H). ES-MS: [M++1]=303 and [M++3]=305.
