Abstract

A microwave assisted tandem Heck-Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction between 6-N,N-di-Boc-amino-5-iodo-2-methyl pyrimidin-4-ol and various aryl alkynyl substrates has been developed. This process generates novel 5-enynyl substituted pyrimidines, which can be transformed to novel functionalized pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines by way of a silver catalyzed cyclization reaction.
