Ethanol → 2-Chloro-4-(2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidin-4-yloxy)-phenylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.10 g (3.69 mmol) 2-methylsulfanyl-4-(3-chloro-4-nitrophenoxy)-pyrimidine, 20 ml ethanol, 20 ml THF, and 300 mg palladium/BaSO4 is hydrogenated at 50 mbar hydrogen pressure at r.t. for 8 h. The catalyst was removed by filtration, washed with 20 ml ethanol and evaporated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica (ethyl acetate/isohexane 2:7) to give 320 mg (32%) 2-chloro-4-(2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidin-4-yloxy)-phenylamine.
