Reaction Steps

2-Oxo-6-thioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-9H-purine (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 76, 5633 (1954)) (0.5 g, 2.97 mmol) was added to 80% hydrazine hydrate (5 ml), and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes at 120° C. After completion of reaction, crystals that precipitated were collected by filtration, and washed with water. The crystals were recrystallized from water to obtain 0.31 g (yield 63%) of colorless powdery crystals (m.p.=278° C. (decomposed)).
