Methyl iodide → 2-{[4-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]oxy}-5-{[(5-ethyl-1-methyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyrimidinyl)thio]methyl}benzonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 2-{[4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]oxy}-5-{[(5-ethyl-4-oxo-1,4-dihydro-2-pyrimidinyl)thio]methyl}benzonitrile (120 mg, 0.258 mmol) and DIPEA (0.090 ml, 0.515 mmol) in DCM (2 mL) was added MeI (0.02416 ml, 0.386 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The reaction was then quenched with water, extracted with EA. The combined organic layers were dried with Na2SO4, filtered, concentrated and purified via reverse phase flash chromatography to afford the title compound (40 mg, 32.4% yield). LCMS: rt=3.44 min, [M+H+]=480
