Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1 mole of 6-amino-1-(2,6-dimethylanilino)-2,4-pyrimidinedione dissolved in 3 moles of dilute aqueous hydrochloric acid cooled to 0°-5° in an ice bath is slowly added 1.1 mole of sodium nitrate (dissolved in water at 5°) with rapid stirring. After addition is complete, add dropwise but rapidly 1.1 mole cuprous chloride dissolved in water. Stir for 30 minutes, then heat to 50° for 1 hour. The mixture is cooled to RT and filtered to obtain 6-chloro-1-(2,6-dimethyl anilino)-2,4-pyrimidinedione.
