Procedure
4-Chloropyrimidine-2-carbaldehyde (4.53 g, 31.8 mmol) was taken up in MeOH (65 mL) and cooled to 0° C. NaBH4 (1.262 g, 33.4 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred at 0° C. for 90 minutes. Water was added and the reaction mixture was extracted with CHCl3 (3×).
Workup
- extractionthe reaction mixture was extracted with CHCl3 (3×)
