The title compound, C12H19BrN4O, represents the minor component of the two products obtained in a series of transformations involving the Grignard reaction of tert-butoxycarbonyl-protected 4-aminocyclohexanone with MeMgBr, and subsequent interaction of the obtained amino-substituted cyclohexanol with 4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-amine followed by bromination with N-bromosuccinimide. The X-ray structure showed that this product represents a trans isomer with respect to the amino and hydroxy substituents in the cyclohexyl ring; the dihedral angle between the aminopyrimidine plane and the (noncrystallographic) mirror plane of the substituted cyclohexyl fragment is 33.6 (3)°. Only two of the four potentially `active' H atoms participate in intermolecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, linking the molecules into layers parallel to the (10) plane.

Synthesis of tert-butyl 4-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohexylcarbamate. To a cooled (0°C) solution of 4-N-boc-amino-cyclohexanone (4.79 g, 22.5 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (190 ml) was added methylmagnesium bromide (3 M solution in diethyl ether, 22.5 ml, 67.2 mmol). The ice bath was removed and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 6 h, and then quenched with saturated ammonia chloride and water. The reaction mixture was concentrated and residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed with saturated ammonia chloride, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated again. The crude product was purified by flash

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The Grignard reaction of tert-butoxycarbonyl(BOC)-protected 4-aminocyclohexanone, 4-C4H9OC(O)N(H)C6H9O, with MeMgBr produced the mixture of cis- and trans- 4-BOC-amino-1-methyl-cyclohexanols, which was subsequently reacted with 4-chloro-6-methylpyrimidin-2-amine and then brominated with N-bromosuccinimide. The isomeric mixture of the products was separated by means of flash chromatography and the corresponding X-ray structural study of the minor isomer showed that the title compound represents a trans-isomer with respect to the amino and hydroxy substituents in the cyclohexane ring (Fig. 1). The plane of the diaminopyrimidine C1/C2/C3/C4/N1/N2/N4 fragment forms a dihedral angle of 33.6 (3)° with the approximate mirror plane of the cyclohexyl fragment, namely the plane passing through N4/C6/C9/C12/O1. This conformation is significantly different from that observed in the related compound described in Melguizo et al., 2003, where the dihedral angle formed by the aminopyrimidine plane and the mirror plane of the cyclohexyl ring is just 13.6°.
There are four H atoms in the molecule, which are capable of H-bond formation. However, only two of them (H1 and H3A) participate in intermolecular H-bonds (Table 1), which link the molecules into layers parallel to the (1,0,-1) plane of the crystal (Fig. 2).
