Description

6-Methyl-2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one is a primary amine that is used in the preparation of uracils. It reacts with dimethylformamide to form an adduct at room temperature, which can then be treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide to produce the desired product. The reaction has been shown to proceed bimolecularly, and is influenced by the concentration of sodium salts. 6-Methyl-2-(methylthio)pyrimidin-4(3H)-one is also used for the synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines. This compound may be prepared from the corresponding amino acid by amination using hydroxylamine hydrochloride and formaldehyde.
