Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of 5-bromouracil (31.0 g) in 300 mL of dichloroethane is treated with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide (80 mL). The reaction mixture is heated under nitrogen. The solution is cooled to ambient temperature, 2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide (50 g) is added and the reaction mixture is heated overnight under the nitrogen. The reaction is cooled, quenched with MeOH, and partitioned between dichloromethane and water. The organic layer is washed with brine, dried (sodium sulfate), and evaporated to give a solid. The crude product is triturated with ether, filtered, and washed with ether three times providing 40.7 g of 5-bromo-1-[2-fluoro-6-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione 1a. MS (CI) m/z 366.0, 368.0 (MH+).
