Procedure

A mixture of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidine (4.14 g, 18.0 mmol), benzene (45 nL), 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide (37.5 mL), tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (1.0 g, 2.94 mmol), and t-butyl bromoacetate (5.85 mL, 39.6 mmol) was vigorously stirred at room temperature for 18 hours using a mechanical stirrer. The reaction mixture was diluted with water (150 mL.) and then extracted twice with chloroform (150 mL each). The chloroform extracts were combined and washed with brine (100 mL). The chloroform layer was dried using anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and then concentrated to give a tan solid. The solid was recrystallized with methanol to yield 3.90 g of 1,3-dihydroperimidine derivative I as tan crystals; m.p. 152-154° C.; 1H NMR (500 Mz; CDCl3): δ 1.46 (s, 18H); 3.70 (s, 4H); 4.01 (s, 5H); 5.20 (s, 2H); 6.51 (δ, 2H, J=7.3 Hz); 7.12 (δ, 2H, J=8.1 Hz); 7.21 (t, 2H, J=7.8 Hz); 13C{1H} NMR (125 Mz; CDCl3): δ28.00, 67.09, 69.43, 72.53, 81.75, 105.88, 112.33, 116.87, 126.92, 134.34, 138.74, 169.56.
