Sodium Methoxide → 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-5-methanesulfonylpyrimidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

6 g of 1-(3-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)-1-methanesulfonyl-2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethene and 4 g of 4-fluorobenzamidine hydrochloride were dissolved in 30 ml of methanol at room temperature. After adding 1.2 of sodium methoxide thereto, the mixture was heated under reflux for 1 hour. The solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure. The residue was washed with water, and then dried to obtain 6 g of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-5-methanesulfonylpyrimidine (Compound 112).
