sulfanylpyrimidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one (VII).
A solution of 0.31 g of triethyl orthoformate in 2 ml of
ethanol was added to a solution of 0.5 g of compound
II and 0.20 g of aniline in 10 ml of ethanol, and the
mixture was stirred for 30 min at room temperature
and heated for 2 h at 50°C. The solvent was distilled
off under reduced pressure, the oily residue was treated
with 6 ml of 25% aqueous ammonia, the resulting
suspension was kept for 1 h at room temperature, and
the precipitate was filtered off, washed with a small
amount of cold water, and dried under reduced
pressure over phosphorus(V) oxide. The dried product
was recrystallized from benzene. To complete pre-
cipitation, the suspension in benzene was diluted with
an equal volume of cyclohexane, and the precipitate
was filtered off, washed with cyclohexane, and dried in
a high vacuum. Yield 82 mg (14%), mp 196°C, Rf 0.14

methyl-1-(6-methyl-2-methylsulfanylpyrimidin-4-
yl)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one (X). A solution of 0.15 g of
sodium nitrite in 3 ml of water was added dropwise
under vigorous stirring to a solution of 0.5 g of
compound II in 50% aqueous acetic acid. The result-
ing suspension was stirred for 30 min at room tem-
perature, and the precipitate was filtered off, washed
with water, and dried in air. The product was
recrystallized first from acetonitrile and then from
acetic acid, thoroughly washed with water, and dried at
80°C over a period of 8 h. Yield 0.19 g (18%), mp

3-Methyl-1-(6-methyl-2-methylsulfanylpyrimidin-
4-yl)-4-(phenylaminomethylidene)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-
one (VIII). A mixture of 0.5 g of compound II, 0.31 g
of triethyl orthoformate, and 0.20 g of aniline was
heated to 80°C and kept for 1 h at that temperature.
The semisolid product was ground, crystallized from
ethanol, and dried under reduced pressure over
phosphorus(V) oxide. Yield 0.34 g (47%), mp 186°C,

(IX). A formaldehyde solution, 0.18 g, was added to a
solution of 0.5 g of compound II in 5% aqueous
sodium hydroxide. The mixture was stirred for 2 h at
room temperature and was left to stand until the
formalin odor disappeared. The mixture was acidified
with acetic acid, and the precipitate was filtered off,
washed with water, and dried at a temperature not
exceeding 60°C. The product was recrystallized from
ethanol and dried under reduced pressure over
phosphorus(V) oxide. Yield 0.19 g (18%), mp 238°C,
