In a round-bottomed flask, methyl 5-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-(methylthio)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-4-carboxylate (55.0 g, 239 mmol) and potassium carbonate (33.0 g, 239 mmol) were combined with DMF (200 ml) to give a black suspension. Benzyl bromide (40.9 g, 239 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 days. The reaction was quenched by the addition of cold water. The mixture was filtered to provide a brown solid. Chromatography (SiO2; 10% to 50% EtOAc in hexanes) provided the desired product as an off-white solid (14.3 g; 18%). LCMS: m/z=321 (MH+).
