Methylathion of Heterocyclic Compounds Containing NH, SH and/or OH Groups by Means of N,N-Dimethylformamide Dimethyl Acetal

Methylations of heterocyclic systems, such as benzimidazole, naphthimidazole, imidazopyridine, purine, pyridine, pyrimidine, pyridazine and s-triazolopyridazine, which bore SH, NH and/or OH groups, were carried out with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal to give the corresponding S-, N- and/or O-methyl derivatives in high yields.Selective methylation of some compounds containing both SH and NH groups took place to give first the S-methyl and subsequently the S,N-dimethyl derivatives.No side reactions, such as C-methylation, were observed.
