Description

5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-amine is a crystalline compound that belongs to the group of pyrophosphates. It has a molecular weight of 160.1 and a melting point of 178°C, which is determined by its pyrimidine ring. The crystal structure is composed of dimers that are linked together by hydrogen bonds. 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-amine was synthesized from 4-aminobenzaldehyde and ethyl orthoformate in the presence of ammonium acetate, followed by hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid. This molecule can be used as a substrate for carboxylase enzymes, such as thiamine pyrophosphate, which catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetate. 5-(Ethoxymethyl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-amine also has conformation parameters
