Abstract
C-5 and C-6 disubstituted pyrimidine derivatives 2–7 were synthesized. Introduction of the aryl rings at C-5 of pyrimidine moiety in 5 and 6 was performed using palladium-catalyzed Stille cross-coupling reaction. The novel C-6 fluorophenylalkylated 5-phenylpyrimidine derivative (7) was prepared by lithiation of 5-phenylpyrimidine (6) and subsequent reaction of thus obtained organolithium intermediate with p-fluoroacetophenone. The structures of 3, 4 and 6 were determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis. Both methoxy groups in these structures adopt a synperiplanar conformation with respect to the N1 and N3 atoms of the pyrimidine ring. The molecules of 3 and 4 are linked through weak Br···Br interactions into zig-zag chains. The molecules of 6 are assembled into layers by one C–H···O hydrogen bond, C–H···π and aromatic π···π stacking interactions.
