Procedure
A solution of methyl 3-[1-(4-isopropylphenyl)-2,5-dioxo-imidazolidin-3-yl]-benzoate (0.30 g, 0.85 mmol) in pyridine (2 mL) was treated with anhydrous lithium iodide (1.5 g, 11.2 mmol), and the resulting mixture was heated to reflux for 4 h. The solution was cooled, evaporated and partitioned between ethyl acetate and 1N aq. HCl. The aqueous layer was extracted with more ethyl acetate, and the extracts were washed with satd. aq. brine, combined, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to afford the title product as a solid (0.21 g, 0.62 mmol, 73%), m.p. 249-252° C. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO, 300 MHz): d 13.09 (1H, br), 8.29 (1H, t, J=2 Hz), 7.82 (1H, d, J=8 Hz), 7.72 (1H, d, J=8 Hz), 7.56 (1H, t, J=8 Hz), 7.38 (2H, d, J=8 Hz), 7.31 (2H, d, J=8 Hz), 4.62 (2H, s), 2.96 (1H, m, J=7 Hz), 1.22 (6H, d, J=7 Hz). Mass spectrum (ES+): m/z 340 (18), 339 (100). Elemental analysis: calculated for C19H18N2O4 C, 67.45; H, 5.32; N, 8.28; observed C, 67.26; H, 5.10; N, 8.12.
