4,4-dimethylpent-2-yn-1-ol

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a stirred solution of 4,4-dimethyl-pent-2-yn-1-ol (3.1 g, 27.6 mmol) in ethanol (30 ml) is added 10% palladium on carbon (0.3 g). The mixture is stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen for 16 h. The reaction mixture is filtered through a pad of celite and the celite bed is washed with methanol (10 ml). The filtrate thus obtained is concentrated and the crude product is purified by column chromatography (5-10% ethyl acetate/hexane) to afford 4,4-dimethyl-pentan-1-ol and 4,4-dimethyl-pentan-1-al. To a stirred solution of 4,4-dimethyl-pentan-1-al (0.85 g, 7.45 mmol) in methanol (12 ml) is added sodium borohydride (0.56 g, 14.9 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture is stirred at RT for 1.5 h. On completion, the solvent is evaporated and then diluted with ethyl acetate (30 ml). The organic layer is washed with water (2×20 ml), brine (20 ml), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated affording 4,4-dimethyl-pentan-1-ol (1.52 g, 13.1 mmol, 48%). The reaction mixture is filtered through a pad of celite the celite bed is washed with methanol (10 ml) The filtrate thus obtained is concentrated the crude product is purified by column chromatography (5-10% ethyl acetate/hexane)

Procedure: In 6 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide were dissolved 199 mg of 4-chloro-6-(2,3-difluorophenyl)pyrimidine and 118 mg of 4,4-dimethyl-2-pentyn-1-ol, to which 43 mg of sodium hydride (60% in oil) was added, followed by stirring at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was then poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated. The resulting residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give 190 mg of 4-(4,4-dimethyl-2-pentynyloxy)-6-(2,3-difluorophenyl)pyrimidine (the present compound (119)). extracted with ethyl acetate The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate concentrated
