Sodium Hydroxide → Sodium [1-methyl-4-(morpholin-4-yl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-yl]acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.88 ml of 2M sodium hydroxide are added to a solution of 1.62 g of ethyl [1-methyl-4-(morpholin-4-yl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-yl]acetate in 20 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction mixture is stirred for 48 hours at ambient temperature. The precipitate formed is filtered off through sintered glass, washed with ethyl acetate, rinsed with diethyl ether and dried, so as to give 730 mg of sodium [1-methyl-4-(morpholin-4-yl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-yl]acetate in the form of a white solid, the characteristics of which are the following:
