Reaction Steps

Ethyl 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-hydroxy-2,4-dioxo-3-(phenylmethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5-pyrimidinecarboxylate. Diethyl {[(phenylmethyl)amino]carbonyl}propanedioate (293 mg, 1.0 mmoles) was added to a suspension of sodium hydride (60% suspension in mineral oil, 100 mg, 2.5 mmoles) in dry tetrahydrofuran (50 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes under argon. 4-Chlorophenyl isocyanate was added and the mixture was heated under reflux for 2 hours, cooled, acidified with 1 molar hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. Flash chromatography (hexane-ethyl acetate) afforded the title compound (225 mg, 56%) 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.06 (t, J=7.07 Hz, 3 H) 3.45 (q, J=7.07 Hz, 2 H) 5.00 (s, 2 H) 7.25-7.28 (m, 1 H) 7.30-7.37 (m, 6 H) 7.53 (d, J=8.59 Hz, 2 H).
