Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred solution of 5,6-dimethyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydropyrimidin-4(1H)-one (10.0 g, 64.0 mmol, Example 1, Step A) and sodium hydroxide (10.0 g, 260.0 mmol) in water (150 mL) at ambient temperature was added methyl iodide (15.0 g, 320.0 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature overnight. Then the reaction mixture was acidified with acetic acid (50 mL), and the solid was collected by filtration and dried to afford 7.0 g (64%) of the titled compound as a white solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.87 (s, 3H), 2.18 (s, 3H), 2.45 (s, 3H), 12.38 (bs, 1H).
