Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl 5-[(2,2-dimethylpropanoyl)oxy]-6-hydroxy-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-4-carboxylate (see Example 4, Step 3) was dissolved in THF, then allyl bromide (2 eq.) and Cs2CO3 (2 eq.) were added. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 h, then evaporated. The residue was diluted with EtOAc, washed with 1N HCl, dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent evaporated. The product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with a gradient of petroleum ether/EtOAc.
