Conditions

Temperature: 60 °C

Procedure

5.9 g of 2-(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-5-methylsulfanyl-oxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-7-ol were dissolved in 150 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide, and 7.7 g of potassium carbonate and then 2.7 g of 1-bromo-propane were added. The solution was stirred at 60° C. for 5 h and then, after cooling, poured onto 150 ml of water. The precipitate was filtered off with suction. The obtained mixture of regioisomers was purified by silica gel chromatography (50 g silica (solute cartridge, heptane/ethyl acetate 9/1). Besides 1.4 g of 2-(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-5-methylsulfanyl-6-propyl-6H-oxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-7-one (LC/MS (method LC1): Rt=1.43 min; m/z=360.13 [M+H]+), 2.5 g of the title compound were obtained.
