Thiophene → 4-(3-Aminophenyl)-2-pyrimidinamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(3-amino-phenyl)-pyrimidin-2-ylamine was prepared in an analogous manner: A solution of 4-(3-nitro-phenyl)-pyrimidin-2-ylamine (0.046 mol) in MeOH (250 ml) was hydrogenated at 50° C. with Pd/C 10% (2 g) as a catalyst in the presence of a solution of thiophene in DIPE (4% v/v, 1 ml). After uptake of H2 (3 equiv.), the catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated and dried (vacuum 60° C.). Yield: 8.64g of 4-(3-amino-phenyl)-pyrimidin-2-ylamine (87%) (m.p.; 190-194° C.).
