The reaction of 2-dimethoxymethyl-3-methoxypropionitrile (1) with acetamidine produces pyrimidopyrimidine (8) via the consecutive process of 1→an intermediate→8. The intermediate was not isolated, but two structures have been proposed for it. We have now succeeded in the isolation of the intermediate and determined it to be 2-methyl-4-amino-5-dimethoxymethyl-5,6-dihydropyrimidine (4). Several key intermediates were also successfully isolated. The novel reaction pathway for the title reaction was concluded to be as follows: the elimination of methanol from 1, followed by the addition of acetamidine affords 3-acetamidinopropionitrile (3), the subsequent quick cyclization of which produces the intermediate, 4; the further elimination of methanol from 4, followed by a replacement reaction with acetamidine, gives an acetamidinomethylene compound (6), which is converted into the final product, 8, via an intermediate (7). Some minor pathways will also be presented.
2-dimethoxymethyl-3-methoxypropionitrile (1) 与乙脒反应,通过 1→an intermediate→8 的连续过程生成嘧啶嘧啶 (8)。该中间体没有分离出来,但有人提出了它的两种结构。现在我们成功地分离出了中间体,并确定它是 2-甲基-4-氨基-5-二甲氧基甲基-5,6-二氢嘧啶(4)。此外,还成功分离出了几个关键的中间体。上述反应的新反应途径如下:从 1 中消除甲醇,然后加入乙脒,得到 3-乙酰胺基丙腈 (3),随后快速环化生成中间产物 4;从 4 中进一步消除甲醇,然后与乙脒发生置换反应,得到乙脒亚甲基化合物 (6),通过中间产物 (7) 转化为最终产物 8。此外还将介绍一些次要途径。
