Uses
5-Bromopyrimidine was used in the synthesis of:
N-heteroaryl substituted 9-arylcarbazolyl derivatives via palladium-catalyzed aerobic and ligand-free Suzuki reaction
(5-(phenylethynyl)pyrimidine) via microwave assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) Sonogashira protocol
Intermediate for the synthesis of plant growth regulator flurprimidol
Uses
5-Bromopyrimidine was used in the synthesis of N-heteroaryl substituted 9-arylcarbazolyl derivatives via palladium-catalyzed aerobic and ligand-free Suzuki reaction, (5-(phenylethynyl)pyrimidine) via microwave assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) Sonogashira protocol.
Application
5-Bromopyrimidine is a compound useful in organic synthesis.
Preparation
5-Bromopyrimidine is prepared by reacting dibromodifuranone with formamide in the presence of B2O2 catalyst at 180-185°C to obtain the product.
General Description
Rapid nucleophilic displacement reactions of 5-bromopyrimidine with nucleophiles under microwave irradiation has been studied. 5-Bromopyrimidine undergoes direct metallation with lithuium diisopropylamide to yield 4-lithio-5-bromopyrimidine.
