Acetyl chloride → HCID 57636133, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of [6-(3-amino-phenyl)-2-methoxy-pyrimidin-4-yl]-[2-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-ethyl]-amine acetate [156 mg, 0.38 mmol, Example 2] in pyridine (1.3 mL) is added acetyl chloride (32 μL, 0.45 mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred for 3 hours at ambient temperature, quenched with the addition of water (20 mL), and extracted three times with EtOAc (20 mL). The combined extracts are washed four times with aqueous copper sulfate solution (10 mL), with water (10 mL), with brine (10 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated by rotary evaporator. The resulting solid is subjected to flash column chromatography on silica gel (4.5 g) eluting with 3% MeOH in DCM to afford N-(3-{2-methoxy-6-[2-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-ethylamino]-pyrimidin-4-yl}-phenyl)-acetamide [51 mg, 34%, Example 6(b)]. LCMS: RT=2.3 minutes, MS: 393 (M+H).
