Reaction Steps

A cold (0° C.) solution of ethyl 5-hydroxy-2-(1-(3-hydroxypropoxy)cyclobutyl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-4-carboxylate (3.0 g, 9.6 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) was treated with methanesulfony chloride (3.30 g, 29 mmol) followed by dropwise addition of triethylamine (4.7 mL, 33.6 mmol). The reaction was stirred for 16 hours at room temperature. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the mixture was dissolved in ethanol (50 mL) and dimethylformamide (25 mL). To the slurry was added potassium carbonate (1.36 g, 9.7 mmol) and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours, followed by heating (80° C.) for 3 hours. The solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and washed with 1N hydrochloric acid (2×50 mL), extracted with ethyl acetate (2×25 mL) then brine ((50 mL). The solution was then dried (sodium sulfate), filtered and concentrated to give the title compound (0.534 g, 19%) as a brown solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 10.64 (1H, br s), 4.45 (2H, q, J=7.0 Hz), 4.38 (2H, br), 3.91 (2H, t, J=5.0 Hz), 2.81 (2H, br), 2.36-2.44 (2H, m), 1.87-1.97 (1H, m), 1.82-1.86 (2H, m), 1.67-1.75 (1H, m), 1.43 (3H, t, J=7.2 Hz).
