Abstract

The Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction of 4-pyrimidyl tosylates was investigated with aryl, heteroaryl and alkyl boronic acids. The reaction provided 4-substituted pyrimidines in good-to-excellent yields after one-hour microwave irradiation in water at 100 °C. The method constitutes a fast option for the synthesis of these heterocyclic systems.
