2-amino pyrimidine + phenyl chloroformate
« on: September 13, 2007, 06:12:45 AM »
HI ,


Does anyone know if a 2-amino pyrimidine will react with a chloroformate ( methy, phenyl...) under Schoten-Baumann conditions (DCM/NaOH aq, RT, strong stirring)


many thanks for your help  ;)

I guess it will react.
However, I'm not sure how stable the carbamate that you form will be.
Methyl and partly phenyl carbamates are a bit sensitive to basic hydrolysis, and your amine is not a 'standard' one.
But if you work at low temperature and quickly, you might get away with it.

Chloroformates are very reactive reagents. At Schotten-Baumann conditions they probably decompose in some extent. At least 5-fold excess will be needed.

thanks for your answer. do you expect chloroformate to be more reactive than acyl chloride (RCOCl)  ? because Schoten-Baumann reaction using acid chloride are done with 1.5 eq. of acyl chloride.


thanks  ;)
