Abstract

We report the synthesis of 5-formyl-, 5-(hydroxymethyl)-, and 5-(bromomethyl) substituted N- [4-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-isopropylpyrimidin-2-yl]-N-methylmethanesulfonamide. The presented synthetic approach is based on highly efficient three step preparation of functionalized 5- methylpyrimidine. The methyl group is selectively brominated by NBS with irradiation into the bromomethyl derivative, which is then transformed into the hydroxymethyl or formyl ...
