Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(3-nitrophenyl)-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (4.40 g, 11.9 mmol) in CH3CN (25 mL), was added NBS (3.60 g, 20.2 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred for 30 minutes at 80° C. before being concentrated in vacuo. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL), washed with water (×3), and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The reaction was then purified by chromatography using silica gel, eluting with 2-6% EtOAc/petroleum ether. The product was collected and concentrated in vacuo to afford 5-bromo-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine as a yellow oil. LRMS (ESI) calc'd for C18H22N4O3SiBr [M+H]+: 449, found 449.
