The synthesis of several 6-acetyl(or 6-cyano)-2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-oxazolopyrimidines (1) from 5-acetyl(or 5-cyano)-1-uracils and 5-acetyl(or 5-cyano, or 5-cinnamoyl, or 5-N-ethoxycarbonylcarbamoyl)-1-(1-ethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)uracils (2) by cyclisation of their toluene-4-sulphonates or methanesulphonates with triethylamine is described.The reaction of 6-cyano-1-(1-ethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-oxazolopyrimidine (1e) with cyclohexylamine produced 5-amino-6-cyclohexyliminomethyl-1-ethyl-2,3-dihydro-7-oxo-7H-oxazolopyrimidine (6a) which with hot water gave ammonia and 5-cyclohexylaminomethylene-1-(1-ethyl-2-hydroxyethyl)barbituric acid (7a).Similar reactions occurred with butylamine and benzylamine and with related oxazolopyrimidines, but in contrast compound (1e) and morpholine gave the isocytosine (11).The structures assigned were confirmed by the synthesis of the acid (7a) and of the related 5-cyclohexylaminomethylene-1-methylbarbituric acid and by 1H n.m.r., i.r., u.v., and mass spectroscopy.
