Reaction Steps

To a 100-mL, round-bottomed flask containing 4-(4-tert-butyl-phenyl)-6-chloro-pyrimidine, (Example 1(a)), (0.156 g, 0.61 mmol) and 5-hydroxyindole (0.24 g, 1.8 mmol, Aldrich) in 1,4-dioxane (12 mL), was added NaOH (8.0 mL, 8.0 mmol, 1.0 N). The mixture was heated at reflux for 4 h, and after coolin to room temperature, the solvent was removed in vacuum. EtOAc (15 mL) was added to the residue, and the organic layer was washed with 1 N NaOH (10 mL), water (10 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered , and concentrated in vacuum. Agter purifying the crude product by silica gel chromatography (4:1 hexanes/EtOAc), the resulting solid was dissolved in acetone (3 mL). Water (5 mL) was added dropwise to this mixture, and a white precipitate fell out of solution, which was collected by filtration, washed with water (0.5 mL), and dried under vacuum at 50° C. for 48 h to furnish the title compound. Mp: 143–145° C. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 344 (M+1). Anal. Calcd for C22H21N3O.(H2O)1/8: C, 76.44; H, 6.20; N, 12.16. Found: C, 76.63; H, 6.20; N, 12.12.
