Sodium Hydroxide → 1-Butanol, 2-(4-pyrimidinylamino)-

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-[(6-Chloro-4-pyrimidinyl)amino]-1-butanol was dissolved in ethanol (110 mL), which was sequentially added with a 5N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (5.5 mL) and Pd—C (hydrous product; 0.55 g), and hydrogenation was performed under hydrogen atmosphere at a normal temperature and a normal pressure. After completion of the reaction, Pd—C was filtered off, and the solvent was evaporated. The resulting residue was extracted with dichloromethane-methanol, and the solvent was removed to give the title compound (4.3 g) as white crystals.
