Procedure

Into a 250-mL 3-necked round bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed 5-bromopyrimidin-2-amine (5 g, 28.74 mmol, 1.00 equiv), 3,4-dimethylphenylboronic acid (4.4 g, 29.33 mmol, 1.00 equiv), dioxane (85 mL), methanol (29 mL), sodium carbonate (6.1 g, 57.55 mmol, 2.00 equiv) in water (29 mL), and Pd(PPh3)4 (664 mg, 0.57 mmol, 0.02 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred overnight at 100° C. in an oil bath. The mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column and eluted with dichloromethane:methanol (50:1). This resulted in 6 g (crude) of 5-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)pyrimidin-2-amine as a yellow solid.
