Abstract

The oxidation of methyl 6-methyl-2-methylsulfanyl-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-3-pyrimidinylacetate by reagents which oxidized the SMe group to SO2Me gave the products of the further transformation of the corresponding 2-methylsulfonyl-substituted ester obtained: methyl 5,5-dichloro-6-methoxy-6-methyl-2,4-dioxohexahydro-3-pyrimidinylacetate (using Cl2 in 70 or 50% MeOH), its mixture (about 1:10) with methyl 6-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3-pyrimidinylacetate (Cl2 in 30% MeOH) or only to the latter compound (Cl2 in H2O, m-ClC6H4CO3H in CHCl3, H2O2 in MeOH). The reaction did not take place with NaOCl in DMF.
