Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-ethoxycarbonyl-7-hydroxyiminomethyl-5-(3-nitrophenyl)-5,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine (1.25 g), 0.29 g of sodium acetate and 0.4 ml of acetic anhydride in 15 ml of acetic acid is stirred with heating at 80°-90° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction solution is poured into water and precipitated crystals are collected by filtration. Recrystallization from a mixture of chloroform and ethanol gives 0.5 g of 7-cyano-6-ethoxycarbonyl-5-(3-nitrophenyl)-5,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine, melting at 260°-261° C. with decomposition.
