Procedure

Prepared using General Procedure 16: To a stirred solution of 5-bromo-2-chloro-4-methoxypyrimidine (100 mg, 0.447 mmol) in 57% aq. HI (1.0 mL) was added sodium iodide (125 mg, 0.838 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 16 h, cooled, then quenched with NaHCO3 (5 mL) and extracted with EA (3×5 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to afford 22.0 mg (16%) of 5-bromo-2-iodo-4-methoxypyrimidine as an off-white solid. LCMS-ESI (m/z) calculated for C5H4BrIN2O: 314.9. found 315.9 [M+H]+, tR=8.22 min. (Method 2). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO) δ 8.25 (s, 1H), 4.07 (s, 3H).
