Procedure

A pale yellow suspension of morpholine-3,5-dione (1.2 g, 10 mmol), of 1,3-dibromopropane (3.4 ml, 33 mmol), and potassium carbonate (2.7 g, 19 mmol) in 23 ml of 2-butanone is refluxed under an argon athmosphere for 22 hours. After cooling, the suspension is concentrated on a rotary evaporator, poured into ice/water, and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, and evaporated. The residual yellow oil (2.06 g) is purified by chromatography (Biotage 40Mi, I=15 cm, cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 3:1).
