Procedure
2,4-Dichloro-6-methylpyrimidin-5-amine (1.0 g, 5.62 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous EtOH (3.5 mL) and H2O (7.0 mL). MgO (1.40 g, 34.74 mmol) and 10% Pd/C (35 mg) were added to the reaction mixture which was hydrogenated at 1 atm, at room temperature, overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (MeOH/CH2Cl2 gradient, 0-15% MeOH) to afford 2-chloro-4-methylpyrimidin-5-amine as light pink solid (0.16 g, 20%).
