Participants

Reaction Steps

Condensation of methyl 2-[4-(2-{[2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]amino}ethyl)phenoxy]-2-methylpropanoate (250 mg; 0.54 mmol) with 2-chloro-5-propyl-pyrimidine (85 mg; 0.54 mmol) as per general procedure E (1.25 eq. K2CO3, dioxane, 220C, 15 hr) was accompanied by partial ester hydrolysis and afforded the title compound in low yield. For ease of purification, the carboxylic acid was converted to its methyl ester derivative (using a standard trimethylsilyldiazomethane/MeOH protocol), chromatographed and subjected to the base-mediated hydrolysis procedure H to afford the title compound in 17% yield (29 mg).
