The reaction was carried out under argon. (4R)-4-(4-Cyano-2-nitrophenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxo-1-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxamide (5.0 g, 10.1 mmol; purity 90%) was initially charged in dry THF (135 ml), methoxycarbonylsulfamoyltriethylammonium hydroxide (Burgess reagent; 3.85 g, 16.17 mmol; 1.6 eq.) was added and the mixture was then stirred at RT for 2 h. Ethyl acetate (300 ml) was then added to the reaction mixture. The organic phase was washed twice with water and once with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was recrystallized from cyclohexane/ethyl acetate. The crystals obtained were dried under high vacuum. The title compound was obtained as a solid (2.8 g, 65% of theory).
