Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(6-amino-2,4-dioxo-1,3-dipropyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrimidin-5-ylcarbamoyl)-cubane-1-carboxylic acid methyl ester (400 mg, 0.966 mmol) in MeOH (20 ml) was added 4 ml of a 20% aq. NaOH solution and the resulting turbid mixture was heated at reflux overnight (12 h). The cool reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, diluted with several small ice chips and acidified by the dropwise addition of concentrated HCl. The resulting white precipitate was collected, dried, and washed with ether to give a white solid (280 mg, 76%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 1.05 (coincident t, 6H), 1.70 (m, 2H), 1.83 (m, 2H), 3.99 (m, 2H), 4.08 (m, 2H), 4.27 (m, 3H), 4.38 (m, 3H). MS: 383 (MH+).
