Investigation of nitrogen- and sulfurcontaining heterocycles

It is shown that 5-acetamido-6-carbethoxymethylmercaptopyrimidines (IV-VII) a r e formed by reaction of 5-amino-6-mercaptopyrimidines (I-IlI) with -chloro- and -chloro--methylacetoacetic esters in the presence of excess alkali, while 6-methyl-7-carbethoxy-pyrimidothiazines (XI-XIII) are formed in the absence of alkali; under similar conditions, hydroxyamino compounds VIII-X and 6-carbethoxymethylpyrimidothiazines XIV-XVI are obtained from I-III and -chloroacetoacetic ester. 6-Carbethoxy- and 7-carbethoxypyrimidothiazines XVII-XXI were synthesized from I-III and ethyl bromopyruvate, II, and chloroformylacetic ester, respectively.For Communication XV, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1423–1427, October, 1970.
