Reaktionsschritte

The 1,3-di-n-propyl-5-nitroso-6-aminouracil (61.6 g) was suspended in 1 L of water, and the suspension was made alkaline to pH 11 with 50% ammonium hydroxide and treated with 100 g of sodium dithionite, in portions, until the purple color faded. The aqueous mixture was extracted with chloroform (8×200 ml), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (5/10% methanol/chloroform) and recrystallized from 10% isopropanol in hexane and recrystallized from 10% isopropanol to yield 37.29 g of 1,3-di-n-propyl-5,6-diaminouracil, m.p., 127°-128° C.
