Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (60% dispersion in oil; 110 mg, 2.75 mmol) was added to a solution of benzimidazole (295 mg, 2.5 mmol) in DMF (6 ml) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes and then added dropwise to a cold (0° C.) solution of 5-bromo-2,4-dichloropyrimidine (712 mg, 3.14 mmol) in DMF (6 ml). The mixture was stirred for at 0° C. for 2 hours and then ethyl acetate (20 ml) and water (20 ml) were added. The organic phase was separated and dried and volatile material was removed by evaporation. The residue was purified by column chromatography, eluting with 20% ethyl acetate/DCM, to give the product as a white solid (500 mg, 52%). NMR: 7.4 (m, 2H), 7.8 (m, 2H), 8.8 (s, 1H), 9.3 (s, 1H); MS (MH+): 309, 311.
