Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Benzyl 4-amino-3-methoxybenzoate (1.92 g, 6.8 mmol) and K2CO3 (2.38 g, 17 mmol) are suspended in 4 mL dioxane and then combined with 2,4-dichloro-5-trifluoromethylpyrimidine (1.48 mL, 6.8 mmol). The suspension is then refluxed with stirring in the oil bath (approx. 130° C.) for 100 min. After the reaction has ended the reaction mixture is filtered, the filtrate is concentrated by rotary evaporation and purified by normal phase column chromatography. The product-containing fractions of A-3a (HPLC-MS: tRet.=1.94 min; MS (M−H)+=436) are combined and concentrated by rotary evaporation.
