Abstract

An efficient protocol for the synthesis of 2-aryl-5-benzyl­pyrimidine-4,6-diamines from readily available substituted 2-benzyl­idenemalononitriles and substituted benzamidines was developed. This practical protocol provides high value pyrimidine-4,6-diamines in moderate to good yields under simple reaction conditions. This approach also enables some modifications of structurally complex bioactive molecules and exhibits potential applications in medicinal chemistry.
