Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-cyclohexyloxymethyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one (0.2 g), toluene (5.5 mL), iodomethane (0.48 g) and potassium carbonate (0.57 g) was heated at 90° C. in a sealed tube for 16 h. The mixture was partitioned in water and ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (40% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to afford 6-cyclohexyloxymethyl-2-methylsulfanyl-3H-pyrimidin-4-one (90 mg).
