Procedure

To methyl 2-(dipropylamino)-6-methylpyrimidine-4-carboxylate (0.450 g, 1.79 mmol) in MeOH (2 mL), water (1 mL), and THF (1 mL) was added lithium hydroxide monohydrate (0.113 g, 2.68 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h and then MeOH and THF were removed under reduced pressure. The pH of the residue was adjusted to approximately 5 and the resulting mixture was extracted with dichloromethane, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to give 2-(dipropylamino)-6-methylpyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (0.351 g) as a yellow solid.
