Sodium borohydride → (2-Chloro-4-morpholinothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)methanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-chloro-4-morpholin-4-yl-thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine-6-carbaldehyde 10 (1.5 g) in ethanol (30 mL) was added sodium borohydride (1 g). After 4 hours the reaction mixture was quenched with brine and the resulting solid was collected by filtration and air dried to yield (2-chloro-4-morpholin-4-yl-thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)-methanol (1.42 g).
