Abstract

A flexible six-step synthesis of potential cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibitors is reported. The synthesis involves the condensation between 3-chloro-4, 4-dimethoxy-2- butanone and amidines, which provides acetyl-imidazoles and late stage palladium- catalyzed N-arylation to give the target pyrimidine derivatives.
