4,6-Dihydroxy-2-(methylthio)pyrimidine Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Step a: 2-Methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4, 6-diol (19a) ; Methyl iodide (32, 64g, 220 mmol) was added dropwise to a suspension of thiobarbituric acid (29g, 200 mmol) in EtOH (300ml) and 2M NaOH solution in water (110ml) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and then stirred for two hours at 60Preparation of 2-Methylthio-4, 6-dihydroxypyrimidine 1.0m thiobarbituric acid sodium salt was dissolved in 1.5m 1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and 50 ml methanol in a SS autoclave to obtain a mixture. To this 0.5m methyl chloride was fed in 1 to 2 hours. The obtained reaction mass was stirred for 2 to 6 hours at 25-30°C, a second lot of 0.5m methyl chloride was fed in 1 to 2 hours and mass was stirred at 25-30°C for 6-8 hours. To this, 0.05m methyl chloride was fed and reaction mass was stirred for 2 to 6 hours. After the end of reaction HPLC indicated 85percent 2-methylthio- 4, 6- dihydroxypyrimidine and 5percent 2-methylthio-4-methoxy-6-hydroxypyrimidine. Yield of product was 75-80 mole percent.

Uses

4,6-Dihydroxy-2-methylthiopyrimidine is an intermediate of the herbicides fluoropyrsulfuron and pyrimidine salicylic acid herbicides bispyribac, pyriminobac and pyrithiobac.
