Procedure
To a stirred solution of 4.83 g (15.8 mmol) of 5-ethyl-3-propargyl-2-phenyl-6-trifluoromethyl-4(3H)-pyrimidinone (compound 46) in 50 mL of THF was added 50 mL of 10% aq NaOH. The mixture was heated at reflux for 2 h, cooled and diluted with 150 mL of ethyl acetate. The organic layer was separated, washed with 50 mL of water and 50 mL of brine and dried over MgSO4. Removal of the solvent afforded 4.74 g of 5-ethyl-3-(2-oxopropyl)-2-phenyl-6-trifluoromethyl-4(3H)-pyrimidinone (compound 179) as a white solid. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) 1.2(3H), 2.2(3H,s), 2.7(2H,q), 4.7(2H,s), 7.45(5H,m).
