Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-methylthiopyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine (75 mg, 0.42 mmol) (see previous experimental), and 3-bromoaniline (1 mL) is heated to 10° C. under N2 for 2 h. The reaction mixture is then chromatographed on silica using MPLC and eluting with a gradient system (CHCl3 to 5% MeOH in CHCl3). The fractions are concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resulting solid is recrystallized from Et2O to yield 4-(3-bromoanilino)pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidine (66 mg, 52.7%) as a light brown solid. 1H NMR (DMSO) δ 10.15 (1H, s), 9.21 (1H, s), 8.80 (1H, s), 8.76 (1H, d, J=5.8 Hz), 8.44 (1H, d, J=5.6 Hz), 8.25 (1H, s), 7.93 (1H, d, J=7.7 Hz), 7.45-7.37 (2H, m).
