Abstract

Hantzsch synthesis of 5-formyluracil (1) methyl acetoacetate (2) and methyl 3-aminocrotonate (3) gave 2, 6-dimethyl-4-(2, 4-dioxo-5-pyrimidy)-1, 4-dihydropyridine-3, 5-dicarboxylic acid dimethylester (4a) in 54.6 yield. As the same procedure, 1, 3-dimethyl-5-formyl-uracil (6) gave 2, 6-dimethyl-4-(1, 3-dimethyl-2, 4-dioxo-5-pyrimidyl)-1, 4-dihydropyridine-3, 5-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl easter (7a) IN 52.2% yield. 4a was methylated to afford 7a also in 52% yield.
