5-(Pyrimidinyl)magnesium and cerium chlorides were prepared via the halogen-metal exchange of 5-bromopyrimidine with ethylmagnesium chloride and a sequential treatment of butyllithium and cerium(III) chloride, respectively. In a similar way, 5-[2,4-di(tert-butoxy)pyrimidinyl]magnesium and cerium chlorides were prepared from the reaction of 5-bromo-2,4-di(tert-butoxy)-pyrimidine with ethylmagnesium chloride and butylcerium chloride, respectively.
