Triethylamine → (R)-2,6-dichloro-5-methyl-N-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)pyrimidin-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,4,6-trichloro-5-methylpyrimidine (2 g, 10.2 mmol), (R)-tetrahydrofuran-3-amine hydrochloride (1.12 g, 9.2 mmol) and Et3N (2.1 g, 20.3 mmol) in EtOH (20 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 14 h., concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified by chromatographic column on silica gel (EtOAc/petroleum ether, gradient elution, from 1/0 to 2/1) to give the (R)-2,6-dichloro-5-methyl-N-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)pyrimidin-4-amine (1.25 g, 53% yield) as a white solid. ESI-LCMS (m/z): 248.1 [M+1]+.
