Diisopropyl Ether → 1-(5-Pyrimidyl)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-propene-1-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

6.01 g of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal was added to 1.54 g of 5-acetylpyrimidine (Khim. Geterotsikl. Soedim., 1981, (7), 958-962) and the mixture was heated at reflux for 15 hours. After the reaction solution was air-cooled, a small amount of diisopropyl ether was added and the deposited crystal was collected by filtration to obtain 1.52 g of the objective compound as reddish brown crystals.
