Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2781219A1] Preparation of 1-alkoxyalkyl-6-benzyl-5-isopropyl-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones (II) involves preparing 5-(phenylmethyl)-4-(1-methylethyl)-pyrimidines (IV) by reacting a 4-chloro-5-(1-methylethyl)-pyrimidine with an organometallic reagent over a homogeneous metal catalyst, then hydrolyzing and alkylating. (IV) are new compounds. Preparation of 1-alkoxyalkyl-5-(1-methylethyl)-6-(phenylmethyl)-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H) -diones of formula (II) involves: (a) preparing 5-(phenylmethyl)-4-(1-methylethyl)-pyrimidines of formula (IV) by reacting a 4-chloro-5-(1-methylethyl)-pyrimidine of formula (VI) with an organometallic reagent of formula PhCH2MX (V) (or with a benzyl halide in presence of magnesium), in presence of a homogeneous metal catalyst; (b) converting (IV) into 5-(1-methylethyl)-6-(phenylmethyl)-pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione of formula (I) by direct acid hydrolysis or alternatively (if R1 = halo) by dialkoxylation followed by hydrolysis; and (c) alkylating (I). R1 = halo or 1-4C alkoxy; M = alkaline earth metal or other Group II or III metal; X = halo; Ra = 1-6C alkyl; Rb = H or 1-4C alkyl. Independent claims are included for: (1) preparation of (IV) by step (a) as above; (2) preparation of (I) by steps (a) and (b) as above; and (3) intermediates (IV) as new compounds.
