Chemistry Faculty Publications

Production of 2-alkyl or 2-cycloalkyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxy pyrimidines by first reacting diketene and lower alkanoic or cycloalkanoic acid amides in the presence of catalytic amounts of Lewis bases or Lewis or Bronsted acids, followed by treating the N-acetoacetyl (lower) alkanoic or cycloalkanoic acid amide intermediates with ammonia in the presence of acid catalysts.

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Production of 2-alkyl or 2-cycloalkyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxy pyrimidines by sequentially reacting without isolation of any intermediates in an organic solvent (1) diketene and ammonia to produce .beta.-aminocrotonamide and (2) .beta.-aminocrotonamide, after water removal therefrom, a lower alkanoic or cycloalkanoic acid ester and an alkali metal alkoxide.
