Procedure

Thiophosgene (1.8 mL, 23.6 mmol) was added dropwise to a stirred mixture of 2-methoxy-4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-5-amine (2.82 g, 18.4 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) and saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate (25 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 40 minutes. The mixture was diluted with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was washed with diisopropyl ether/n-hexane to give the title compound as a pale yellow powder (3.16 g, 16.2 mmol, 88%).
