[CH3:1][NH:2][C:3]([NH:5][CH3:6])=[O:4].[F:7][C:8]([F:15])([F:14])[C:9](=[CH2:13])[C:10](Cl)=[O:11].O>CN(C=O)C>[CH3:1][N:2]1[CH2:13][CH:9]([C:8]([F:15])([F:14])[F:7])[C:10](=[O:11])[N:5]([CH3:6])[C:3]1=[O:4]A solution of 1,3-dimethylurea (423 mg; 4.8 mmoles) in DMF (5 ml) was cooled to 0° C., and α-trifluoromethylacryloyl chloride (792 mg; 5.0 mmoles) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, water (20 ml) was added, and the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride (20 ml×1, 10 ml×2). The combined extracts were dried over anhhdrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by a column chromatography on silica gel (chloroform) to give 508 mg (yield: 50%) of 1,3-dimethyl-5-trifluoromethyl-5,6-dihydrouracil (OF-1).
