(R)-4-[2-(Methylsulfanyl)pyrimidin-4-yl]-1-(tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)-1H-pyrazol-5-amine

Abstract

The title compound, C12H15N5OS, was obtained by reaction of 2-(2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile with (tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)hydrazine dihydrochloride, and the racemic product was subsequently separated by chiral chromatography (first peak; [α]D20 = +51.3°). The chiral center at the substituted atom of the tetrahydrofuranyl group has an R-configuration. The pyrimidine and pyrazolyl rings are almost coplanar, their mean planes forming a dihedral angle of 6.4 (1)°. One of the H atoms of the amino group participates in an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the pyrimidine N atom in position 3. The second H atom is involved in an intermolecular hydrogen bond, which links the molecules into an infinite chain.
