Triethylamine → Ethyl 4-((3-fluoro-4-methoxybenzyl)amino)-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

In DCM (50 mL) were dissolved ethyl 4-chloro-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (1.5 g, 6.46 mmol), 3-fluoro-4-methoxybenzylamine (1.0 g, 6.45 mmol) and triethylamine (1.3 g, 12.9 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 min, and washed with water. The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to give ethyl 4-((3-fluoro-4-methoxybenzyl)amino)-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate as a yellow oil (2.2 g, yield: 97%).
