Preparation
Obtained by chlorination of uracil. Add uracil, phosphorus trichloride, and xylene amine into the reaction pot, heat to 130 ℃, reflux for about 45min, slightly cool, put in crushed ice, that is, the precipitation of purple solid, filtered while hot and not dissolved, washed with ice water, vacuum drying, a kind of purple crude, decolorized with petroleum ether (boiling range of 60-90 ℃), recrystallized, obtained 2,4-dichloropyrimidine.
Reactivity Profile
The reaction of N-substituted cyclic amines with 2,4-dichloroquinazoline and 2,4-dichloro-5-methyl-pyrimidine afforded 2-amino-4-chloroquinazolines and 2-amino-4-chloro-5-methylpyrimidines, respectively—the reaction of these amines with 2,4-dichloropyrimidine 3a afforded not only 2-amino-4-chloropyrimidines but also the isomeric 4-amino-2-chloropyrimidines. An effective one-pot, regioselective double Suzuki coupling of 2,4-dichloropyrimidine has been developed. This method enables the quick and efficient synthesis of diarylated pyrimidines. The choice of solvent proved critical to the success of this reaction sequence, with alcoholic solvent mixtures affording much greater reactivity and correspondingly lower temperatures than polar aprotic solvents[5-6].
