Procedure

A mixture of ethyl 4-chloro-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (200 g, 0.86 mol), bicyclo[1.1.1]pentan-1-amine hydrochloride (171 g, 1.11 mol; prepared according to Org. Lett., 13(17): 4746-4748 (2011)) and DIEA (278 g, 2.15 mol) in ethanol (2.4 L) was stirred overnight at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, the solvents were concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude product, which was diluted with water (1 L). The aqueous layer was extracted with chloroform (2×1 L) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Evaporation of the solvents afforded the desired compound (231 g, 0.83 mol, 96% yield) as a pale brown oil which was contaminated with trace amounts of DIEA. This product was used in the next reaction without further purification; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 8.61 (s, 2H), 4.30 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 2.54 (s, 3H), 2.51 (s, 1H), 2.20 (s, 6H), 1.35 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H).
