Reaktionsschritte

5-Methoxycarbonylpyrimidine (1.381 g, 10 mmol) in 143 ml 0.07158M HBr was hydrogenated at 26 psig over 600 mg Pd-on-carbon 10% in a Parr hydrogenator for three hours. The suspension was filtered and the filter rinsed twice with hot water (10 ml). The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to give 1.86 g yellow oil (83%). The oil was crystallized from anhydrous ethanol/THF, and the hygroscopic crystals collected by decanting the solvents under a stream of nitrogen. Excess solvents were removed under vacuum in a drying pistol to yield 1.01 g (45%) white crystals mp 149°-153° C. (with the evolution of gas). Microanalysis calc.: C32.3, H 4.97, N 12.56; found: C 32.12, H 5.15, N 12.34. MHz nmr indicated product.
