Procedure

To a stirred suspension of 6-Methylthio-pyrimidine-2,4-diamine (50.0 g; 321 mmol) in water (1000 mL) was added 500 mL of 2N acetic acid. The mixture was warmed to 50° C. and NaNO2 solution was added (24.0 g; 353 mmol in 200 mL H2O) rapidly. After 1 hr at 50° C., the deep Blue/purple mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and filtered. The blue/purple solid was washed several times with water and finally washed with ether. The solid was allowed to air dry to give 51.0 g of 6-Methylthio-5-nitroso-pyrimidine-2,4-diamine 2 as blue/purple solid.
