Sodium hydride → 4-(2,6-Dimethyl-4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenoxy)-6-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (1.2 eq) is added to 2,6-dimethyl-4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenol (prepared according to literature procedures, see Combellas et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 1992, 33, 4923) (1.2 eq) in 1-methyl-2-pyrridone (2 ml/mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 min and a solution of 4,6-dichloro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (1 eq) in 1-methyl-2-pyrridone (1 ml/mmol) is added. The resulting mixture is heated to 100° C. for 16 h, cooled to room temperature, poured into ice water and extracted with CHCl3 (×3). The combined organic layers are washed with water and brine, dried (Na2SO4), concentrated to dryness and purified by silica gel chromatography.
