Participants

Reaction Steps

A brown glass round-bottom flask was charged with 6-methyl-1H-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione (2.70 g, 14.8 mmol) and glacial acetic acid (30 ml). Bromine (2.70 ml) was added and the mixture stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. The resultant mixture was diluted with water (30 ml) and the solid was collected by filtration, washed thoroughly with water and then dried in vacuo to give 5-bromo-6-methyl-1H-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione as a brown solid (2.43 g), which was used without further purification.
