Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-chloro-6-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine, (Example 2(a), Method A), (259 mg, 1 mmol) and 2-chloro-quinolin-8-ol (Example 2(a), Method B), (180 mg, 1 mmol) in 2 mL of DMF was added potassium carbonate (276 mg, 2 mmol). The reaction was stirred in a 90° C. oil bath for 2 h. EtOAc and brine were added, and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. The combined EtOAc layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuum. Purification by flash chromatography by silica gel chromatography 1:4 of EtOAc/hexanes as eluent gave the title compound as a white solid. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 402 (M+1). Mp: 171.5–173.0° C. Anal. Calcd for C20H11ClF3N3O: C, 59.79; H, 2.76; N, 10.46. Found: C, 60.01; H, 2.80; N, 10.50.
