Reaction Steps

6-Cyclopropyl-2-(methylthio)pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-8(7H)-one (Preparation 181, 180 mg 0.77 mmole) was stirred with phosphorus oxychloride (6 mL) and the reaction was heated at 70° C. for 2 hours before concentrating in vacuo. Ethyl acetate (20 mL) was added to the residue and the solution was cooled in ice. A little ice and then sodium bicarbonate solution (10 mL) was added. The mixture was shaken thoroughly and the aqueous layer separated. The organic layer was washed with sodium bicarbonate solution (10 mL), brine (5 mL), dried and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified using preparative TLC eluting with 1:3 ethyl acetate:cyclohexane to afford the title compound (171 mg 88%).
