Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-ethoxybenzoyl chloride (12.0 g, 65 mmol) in dimethylformamide (10 mL) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of 5,6-diamino-1-ethyl-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione (10.4 g, 61 mmol) and triethylamine (9.8 mL, 65 mmol) in dimethylformamide (250 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred for 20 hours at room temperature, then evaporated under reduced pressure. Aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1N, 98 mL, 98 mmol) was added and the mixture heated under reflux for 6 hours. The resulting solution was acidified with 1N hydrochloric acid and the precipitate collected and dried by suction to give 8-(2-ethoxyphenyl)-3-ethyl-3,7-dihydropurine-2,6-dione as a beige solid (7.0 g, 72%).
