Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Azetidin-3-yl-methyl-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.97 g, 11 mmol) in IPA (5 mL) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of 4,6-dichloropyrimidine (1.49 g, 10 mmol) in IPA (20 mL) followed by dropwise addition of TEA (2.11 mL, 15.1 mmol) at ambient temperature under N2. The resulting milky yellow solution was heated to 80° C. and maintained at 80° C. for 2 hours. The solution was allowed to cool and evaporated to give a yellow oil. The crude material was partitioned between DCM (70 mL) and water (30 aqueous extract was re-extracted with DCM (70 mL). The combined organic extract was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (30 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give a coloured oil. The crude oil was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with DCM:MeOH (99:1 changing to 96:4 by volume) to yield the title compound as a solid (1.93 g, 64%).
