Procedure
To a stirred suspension of 4.51 g (17.9 mmol) of 6-ethyl-5-methyl-2-phenyl-3-propargyl-4(3H)-pyrimidinone (Compound 5) in 30 mL of methanol was added 7.50 g (34.7 mmol) of a 25% by weight solution of sodium methoxide in methanol. The mixture was warmed until homogeneous and 2.2 mL (35.3 mmol) of methyl iodide was added. The mixture was refluxed for 4 h and then rotovapped to remove the bulk of the methanol. The residue was partitioned between 100 mL of water and two 100 mL portions of ether. The combined ether layers were washed with 50 mL of brine and dried over MgSO4. Removal of the solvent afforded 4.35 g of a yellow oil. Flash chromatography on a column of 50 g of silica gel, eluting with 20, 30, 40 and 50% ether in hexanes furnished 3.30 g (58%) of 3-(2,2-dimethoxypropyl)-6-ethyl-5-methyl-2-phenyl- 4(3H)-pyrimidinone (compound 36), mp 80°-83° C. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ1.15(3H,s), 1.25(3H,t), 2.15(3H,s), 2.65(2H,q), 2.85(6H,s), 4.4(2H,m), 7.45(5H,s).
