Lithium Hydroxide → N-[3-methoxy-phenyl]-4-(2-chloro-3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidineamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-dimethylamino-1-(2-chloro-3-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one (3.50 g, 16.5 mmol), 3-methoxy-phenyl-guanidine nitrite (3.70 g, 16.2 mmol), lithium hydroxide (412 mg, 16.5 mmol) in 2-butanol (15 mL) is heated to reflux overnight. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature, concentrated and water (60 mL) is added. The resultant solid is filtered, washed with water, isopropanol and dried to give N-[3-methoxy-phenyl]-4-(2-chloro-3-pyridyl)-2-pyrimidineamine (3.95 g); ESI-MS (m/z): 313 (M++H).
