Reaction Steps

To a solution of (5-bromo-2-chloro-pyrimidin-4-yl)-isobutyl-amine (11.2 mmol) in DMSO (30 ml) is added potassium cyanide (22.5 mmol) and sodium p-toluenesulfonic acid (3.75 mmol) in DMSO(17 ml) at room temperature. The mixture is stirred at 75° C. for 18 h and diluted with AcOEt. The organic layer is washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. Chromatography on silica gel (n-hexane:AcOEt=25:1, 15:1 and 12:1) gives the product in 84% yield. Rf=46 (n-hexane:AcOEt=3:1)
