Procedure

4,6-Dichloro-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine (40 g, 205 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (1025 mL) and cooled to 0° C. Sodium methoxide (55.4 g, 1025 mmol) was added slowly and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. 300 mL of 3 M HCl was added and the methanol was evaporated. Additional water (500 mL) was added and the mixture was filtered, washed with water and dried to give the title compound as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 6.41 (s, 1H), 3.97 (s, 3H), 2.55 (s, 3H); LCMS 2.40 min, 191 (M+H).
