Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.0 g of dl-5-chloro-6-ethyl-4-[α-ethyl-4-(2,2-diethoxyethoxy)benzyl]aminopyrimidine obtained in Example 19 dissolved in 40 ml of ethanol was added 0.4 g of methoxyamine hydrochloride. Then, after addition of a catalytic amount of a 6N hydrochloric acid, the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and extracted with ethyl acetate. Then, the extract was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The oily product obtained was isolated by column chromatography (Wako Gel C-200, trade name, eluted with toluene: ethyl acetate=7:1) to give 0.4 g of the desired product as pale yellow liquid.
