General Procedure for the Preparation of Compounds 11a−n
and 14a−l . A mixture of the appropriate thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-
4(3H)-one 10a−j, thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7(6H)-one 10k−n, or
thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one 13a−l (5 mmol) and POCl3 (30
mL) with two to three drops of dimethylformamide was refluxed for 6
h. The mixture was cooled, POCl3 was removed under vacuum, the
residue obtained was poured into a saturated solution of NaHCO3,
and the suspension was neutralized with solid NaHCO3. The mixture
was extracted with dichloromethane and the organic phase was
washed with water followed by brine, dried over Na2SO4, and
concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was stirred for 15 min with
ethyl ether (15 mL), and the desired product was obtained after
removal of the ether by filtration.
