Procedure

A suspension of ethyl 3-(2-methoxypyrimidin-5-yl)acrylate (52.4 g, 0.252 mol) in ethanol (400 ml) and triethylamine (50 ml) was treated with 10% palladium on carbon (3 g) and hydrogenated at 50 psi for 1.75 h. The catalyst was filtered off through hyflo and the filtrate evaporated. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane, washed twice with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to an oil, yield 41.2 g (78%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.23 (3H, t), 2.61 (2H, t), 2.87 (2H, t), 3.99 (3H, s), 4.13 (2H, q), 8.39 (2H, s); MS (APCI+) found (M+H)=211; C10H14N2O3 requires 210.
