Ammonium Chloride → 2-(2-(3-Methoxy-4-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylamino)-6-((2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-methyl)pyrimidin-4-yl)butan-2-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

Ethylmagnesium bromide (0.86 mL, 2.57 mmol, 3M in THF) was dissolved in THF (5 mL). 1-(2-(3-Methoxy-4-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylamino)-6-((2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)methyl)-pyrimidin-4-yl)ethanone (140 mg, 0.32 mmol) was dissolved in THF (5 mL) and was added slowly to the solution of ethylmagnesium bromide. The mixture was cooled on ice, ammonium chloride (sat, aq, 5 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 5 min. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (×2). The solvents were evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica eluting with a gradient of MeOH in DCM to give the title compound as an oil, 63 mg (42%).
