Versuchsvorschrift

To recap, this invention involves: converting trichloroacetyl chloride with ketone to γ,γ ,γ -trichloroacetoacetyl chloride, adding the reaction mixture to urea dissolved in a polar organic solvent, e.g., acetic acid; evaporating out the resulting 6-trichloromethyluracil; and hydrolyzing the 6-trichloromethyluracil to form orotic acid.
