Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 250 g of 2,2,4,4,6-pentamethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrimidine hydrate, 100 g of acetone and 100 g of methanol is refluxed for 13 hours. The solution is subsequently concentrated in vacuo, and the oil remaining is distilled in vacuo. The yield is 185 g of a slightly yellowish oil, B.P.12 = 80°- 86°C, which, after the addition of about 22 ml of water, solidifies to form crystals of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxopiperidine-hydrate.
