Reaction Steps

A stirred solution containing 2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine (17.74 g, 0.11 mol) and 4-{[2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-4-yl]oxy}aniline (Intermediate 2U) in water (400 mL), isopropanol (100 mL) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (5 mL) was heated at 65° C. for 18 h. The reaction was cooled to 0° C. and the yellow-tan solid was collected by suction filtration and washed with water. The filtered product was dissolved in hot N,N-dimethylformamide (90° C.) and triethylamine was slowly added until the solution was slightly basic (pH˜8). The solution was then cooled to rt, added to vigorously stirred ice water (1.2 L), and stirring was continued for 1 h. The tan solids were collected by suction filtration and washed sequentially with water, isopropanol, diethyl ether and finally hexane. The material was dried by air suction to afford a light tan solid, 28.8 g (77%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm 9.46 (s, 1H), 8.59 (d, 1H, J=5.6 Hz), 7.81 (d, 2H, J=9.0), 7.37 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 7.17 (d, 2H, J=9.0 Hz), 7.11 (dd, 1H, J=2.6, 5.6 Hz), 6.78 (s, 2H), 6.00 (s, 1H).
