Reaction Steps

1-(2-(3-Methoxy-4-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylamino)-6-((2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-methyl)pyrimidin-4-yl)ethanone (178 mg, 0.41 mmol) was dissolved in THF (5 mL). The mixture was added to methylmagnesium bromide (3 M in THF, 1.090 mL, 3.27 mmol) in THF (5 mL). The mixture was stirred at rt for 5 min. The mixture was cooled at 0° C. and ammonium chloride (aq) was added. The mixture was extracted by EtOAc, the organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica eluting with a gradient of methanol in DCM to give the title compound as a solid 107 mg (58%).
