Procedure

A solution of diazomethane in ether(prepared from 200 g of N-nitrosomethylurea) is introduced in portions over the course of 3 days into a solution of 25.0 g (0.15 mol) of 1,3-diacetyl-4-imidazolin-2-one and 5.0 g of copper-I chloride in 250 ml of di-n-butyl ether at 80°-90°. The solution is then filtered, the residue is repeatedly eluted with benzene and the combined filtrates are concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography of the crude product on silica gel gives 10.3 g of unconverted 1,3-diacetyl-4-imidazolin-2-one and 3.6 g (about 20%) of 2,4-diacetyl-2,4-diaza-bicyclo[3,1,0]hexan-3-one as colourless crystals of melting point 134°-136° C. (from ether).
