Tetrahydrofuran → [3-(2-Ethoxypyrimidin-5-yl)-2-fluorophenyl]methanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-[3-({[tert-Butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-2-fluorophenyl]-2-chloropyrimidine (200 mg) was mixed with THF (4 ml), and sodium ethoxide (132 mg) was added thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature for 3 hours, and then a 1M TBAF/THF solution (1.2 ml) was added thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. Water and EtOAc were added to the reaction mixture, and the organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/EtOAc) to obtain [3-(2-ethoxypyrimidin-5-yl)-2-fluorophenyl]methanol (129 mg).
