Water → N-(5-Nitro-pyrimidin-2-yl)-benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To stirred solution of 2-amino-5-nitropyrimidine (1.0 g, 7.14 mmol) in pyridine (20 ml) was added benzoyl chloride (0.92 ml, 7.93 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for 4 hr under nitrogen atmosphere. The reactant mixture was cooled to the room temperature and poured into 200 ml water. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight and then filtered in vacuo. The filter cake was washed with water (20 ml*3) and dried in vacuo to give 2-(N-benzoyl)amino-5-nitropyrimidine as a white solid (790 mg).
