Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

136 mL (1440 mmol) of phosphorus oxychloride are added, at room temperature and under an argon atmosphere, to a suspension of 68.10 g (290 mmol) of 2-hydroxy-8-(trifluoromethyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one in 950 mL of 1,2-dichloroethane. The mixture obtained is then heated at 65° C. for 3 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture is evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue obtained is taken up in 140 mL of cold water and 430 mL of ethyl acetate. 32% sodium hydroxide is added to the mixture obtained, to pH=5. The resulting organic phase is separated out and then dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 60 g of 2-chloro-8-(trifluoromethyl)-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one in the form of an orange solid, the characteristics of which are as follows:
