Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.0 g. of 4-hydrazino-5-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)pyrimidine and 10-12 ml. of triethyl orthoacetate is stirred at room temperature. Complete solution is effected in about 10 minutes and stirring is continued for an additional 30-40 minutes until a new precipitate begins to form. This precipitate is collected in 3 crops over a 4 hour period to yield 0.85 g. (77%) of product. The product is recrystallized from chloroform-hexane to give the title compound, m.p. 157°-159° C.
