Procedure
During chemical development this process was altered. 2-Amino-3-hydroxypyridine was reacted with 2-acetyl-butyrolactone in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid in xylene to yield 9-hydroxy-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one; this product proved to be poorly soluble in xylene resulting in deposit formation on the wall of the reaction vessel and discoloration of the reaction mixture to black.
