Reaction Steps

N-Iodosuccinimide (238 g) was added to a stirred solution of ethyl 2-(2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-1,3-oxazin-3-yl)-2-methylpropanoate (200 g) in acetic acid. The mixture was stirred at 40-45° C. for 5 hours then at ambient temperature overnight and evaporated. The residue was diluted with ether, washed with water, sodium carbonate solution (2M) and brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. A solution of the residue in ethanol was cooled to -40° C. to give ethyl 2-(2,3-dihydro-5-iodo-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-1,3-oxazin-3-yl)-2-methylpropanoate (66.9 g), m.p. 85-87° C.
