Participants

Reaction Steps

A 0.5 M aqueous solution of LiOH (1.5 eq) was added to a stirring mixture of ethyl 5-amino-2-chloropyrimidine-4-carboxylate (1 eq) in H2O (0.1 M) and THF (0.1M). The reaction was maintained for 2 h at rt. 1.0 N HCl was added and the crude mixture was concentrated in vacuo to remove residual THF. The resulting solids were collected on a paper lined Buchner funnel and dried for 16 h under vacuum to give 5-amino-2-chloropyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid. LC/MS (m/z): 174.0 (MH+). HPLC: Rt: 1.148 min.
