Reaction Steps

20 mg of 4-chloro-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole [which can be prepared according to Tet. Let. (1987) (28), 5291-5294] and 34 mg of N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-N′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride are added to a solution of 30 mg of sodium [1-methyl-4-(morpholin-4-yl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-yl]acetate in 0.5 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide and 0.5 ml of pyridine. The reaction mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 16 hours, and then 10 ml of water are added and the mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed successively with water and a saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by silica column chromatography, elution being carried out with ethyl acetate, so as to give 12 mg of 2-[2-(4-chloro-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-1-yl)-2-oxoethyl]-3-methyl-6-(morpholin-4-yl)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one, the characteristics of which are the following:
