Participants

Reaction Steps

A 10 ml portion of NMP solution containing 500 mg of 2-{[4-(aminomethyl)phenyl]amino}-4-[(3-methylphenyl)amino]pyrimidine-5-carboxamide dihydrochloride synthesized by the method described in Example 8 of WO 99/31073 was mixed with 0.53 ml of triethylamine and 0.12 ml of acetic anhydride, followed by stirring overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was mixed with water and extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic layer was washed with saturated brine and then the solvent was evaporated. The resulting residue was triturated with methanol, and washed to obtain 270 mg of 2-({4-[(acetylamino)methyl]phenyl}amino)-4-[(3-methylphenyl)amino]pyrimidine-5-carboxamide as a pale yellow solid.
