To a 1 M solution of the benzaldehyde (1 mmol) in MeOH was suc-
cessively added allylamine (1 mmol), cyclohexylisocyanide (1
mmol), and 2-(benzylthio)pyrimidin-4-ol (1 mmol) under an inert
atmosphere. The resulting mixture was heated at 60 °C for 48 h. Af-
ter evaporation of the solvent, the mixture was purified by flash
chromatography to give 1g (340 mg, 72% yield) as a yellow solid

To a 0.1 M solution of Ugi–Smiles adduct 1g in a CH2Cl2–toluene
solvent mixture (50:50) was added MCPBA (3.0 equiv, 3 mmol)
under argon. The mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 h, then morpholine
(3 equiv) was added. After stirring at r.t. for 20 min, the mixture was
heated at 110 °C for 7 h. After evaporation of the solvent and flash
chromatography, compound 2a was obtained as a yellow solid (mp
