2,4-Difluoropyrimidine → N-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-2-fluoropyrimidin-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,4-difluoropyrimidine (600 mg, 5.17 mmol) and 2,4-dimethoxybenzylamine (860 mg, 5.17 mmol) in THF (17 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction solution was vacuum concentrated, and the residue was then purified with silica gel chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=1:2) to yield the title compound (594 mg, 43%) as a colorless solid.
