Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of [4-N-(piperonyloxycarbonyl)-cytosin-1-yl]-acetic acid ethyl ester (6.40 g, 17 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) and water (60 mL) was added lithium hydroxide monohydrate (1.6 g) at room temperature. After stirring 20 min, the reaction mixture was acidified by adding 1 N HCl (40 mL). The precipitated solid was filtered off, washed with water (20 mL) and ethyl alcohol (20 mL), and dried in vacuo to give the desired product (5.8 g, 98%). 1H-NMR (500 MHz; DMSO-d6) δ 7.94 (d, 1H), 6.93 (d, 1H), 6.90 (s, 1H), 6.82 (s, 2H), 5.93 (s, 2H), 4.99 (s, 2H), 4.43 (s, 2H).
