Abstract

A procedure has been proposed for the synthesis of 2-(cyclopentylsulfanyl)-6-[(1R)-1-(2,6-difluorophenyl) ethyl]-5-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one through intermediate (3R)-4,4-dimethyl-2-oxotetrahydrofuran-3-yl (2R)-2-(2,6-difluorophenyl)propanoate which was obtained from prochiral 2-(2,6-difluorophenyl)prop-1-en-1-one generated in situ. The proposed procedure may be regarded as stereoselective route to 6-[(1R)-1-(2,6- difluorophenyl)ethyl]-5-methylpyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives.
