Reaction Steps

2.60 g (10.8 mmol) of 2-amino-3,3-diphenylpropionic acid and 0.64 g (4.5 mmol) of 2-chloro-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine were introduced into a mixture of 16 ml of DMF and 16 ml of water, 0.57 g (5.4 mmol) of sodium carbonate was added and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 24 hours. Then 100 ml of ethyl acetate and a little water were added, and the phases were separated. The aqueous phase was acidified (pH 1-2) with 6 normal hydrochloric acid. The resulting precipitate was filtered off with suction and washed with ethyl acetate, then dried. 0.30 g (19.2%) of a white powder of melting point 172-174° C. was obtained.
