Reaction Steps

2,4-Dichloro-1,3,5-triazine (2.01 g, 12.7 mmol) was dissolved in 10 mL of dry DMF and the solution was cooled to 0° C. To this solution was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine, (6.65 mL, 38.2 mmol) and 6-bromo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride (3.26 g, 12.7 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. to RT for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with water (10 mL) and extracted with EtOAc. The organics were dried with MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material obtained was purified with medium pressure silica gel chromatography using gradient eluent, 0-40% EtOAc in hexanes to afford 6-bromo-2-(4-chloro-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1.90 g, 46% yield) as white solid.
