4,6-Dichloro-5-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-2-(pyridin-4-YL)pyrimidine → 5-isopropyl-N-[6-chloro-5-(o-methoxyphenoxy)-2-(4-pyridyl)-4-pyrimidinyl]-2-pyridine sulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

1 g of 4,6-dichloro-5-(o-methoxyphenoxy)-2-(4-pyridyl)-pyrimidine and 1.43 g of 5-isopropyl pyridine-2-sulfonamide potassium salt were suspended in 20 ml of dry DMF. The mixture was stirred under argon at room temperature and became clear within a few h. After 16 h at room temperature, most of the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in 20 ml water and the pH was adjusted to 4-5 by adding about 1 ml of acetic acid. A precipitate formed. The precipitate was filtered off, washed with water and dried. The yellow powder was further purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting first with hexane:ethyl acetate 1:1 then with DCM:MeOH 10:1. 1.43 g of 5-isopropyl-N-[6-chloro-5-(o-methoxyphenoxy)-2-(4-pyridyl)-4-pyrimidinyl]-2-pyridine sulfonamide was obtained as a slightly yellow powder. LC-MS: tR=5.00 min, [M+1]+=512.19, [M−1]−=510.26.
