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-carbonitrile (5.0 g, 11.7 mmol) was initially charged in absolute THF (500 ml), and a 1 M solution of lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) in THF (13.5 ml, 13.5 mmol, 1.15 eq.) was added at −78° C. After 30 min of stirring, iodomethane (8.30 g, 58.5 mmol; 5 eq.) in THF was added, and the mixture was stirred with gradual warming from −78° C. to RT for 16 h. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure, and initially 1N hydrochloric acid (14.0 ml), and then MTBE (500 ml) were added. The organic phase was washed successively with water (2×), saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, saturated ammonium chloride solution and saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The title compound was obtained as a solid (4.3 g, 83% of theory).
