Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (3.4 mL, 24.6 mmol) was added to a suspension of 2-amino-4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidine (Aldrich, 1.77 g, 12.3 mmol) and benzylamine (1.98 g, 18.5 mmol) in anhydrous dioxane (20 mL). The reaction was heated to 80° C. and allowed to run for 12 h. Upon cooling to room temperature, a white precipitate formed which was collected by vacuum filtration. The solid was recrystallized from acetone: hexanes to afford N4-benzyl-6-methylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine (2.33 g, 89% yield) as a white solid.
