Ethanolamine → 4-Chloro-6-(2,3-xylidino)-2-pyrimidinylthio(N-beta-hydroxyethyl)acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To the solution of [4-chloro-6-(2,3-xylidino)-2-pyrimidinyl-thio]-acetic acid (85 g.), triethylamine (45 ml.), in anhydrous chloroform (750 ml.), cooled to -5° C., 35 ml. of ethyl chlorocarbonate and then 22 ml. of ethanolamine were added with stirring while the temperature was kept below +10° C. The reaction mixture was washed with water (350 ml.), and dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was washed with benzene (500 ml.) and crystallised several times from acetone. 55 g. of [4-chloro-6-(2,3-xylidino)-2-pyrimidinyl-thio]-(N-β-hydroxyethyl)-acetamide were obtained, identical with the compound prepared as in Example 1.
