Reaction Steps

Ethyl 3,4-dihydro-4-oxopyrimidine-5-carboxylate (K R Huffman, F C Schaefer and G A Peters, J. Org. Chem. (1962) 27, 551-8) (1.68 g) was dissolved in 1N NaOH (23 ml) and heated at 60° C. overnight. After cooling in ice, the solution was acidified to pH2 with 2N HCl, stirred 5 mins and the solid filtered off and dried under vacuum to give title compound (1.25 g).
