Diisopropylethylamine → 4-((1R,3R,4R)-3-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohexylamino)-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile

Temperature

60 °C

To a stirring solution of 4-chloro-2-(methylthio)-pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile (310 mg, 1.670 mmol) and (1R,2R,5R)-5-amino-2-methylcyclohexanol hydrochloride (304 mg, 1.837 mmol; synthesis described herein) in DMF (2.4 mL) was added DIEA (0.873 ml. 5.01 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 h. LCMS showed the reaction to be complete. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue diluted with 150 mL ethyl acetate and 50 mL water. The layers were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with 75 mL ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate layers were washed with brine (2×50 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to an oil that solidified upon standing to afford 4-((1R,3R,4R)-3-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohexylamino)-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile (418 mg, 1.503 mmol, 90% yield). MS (ESI) m/z 279.3 [M+1]+.
