Wang, Han; Wen, Kun; Wang, Le; Xiang, Ye; Xu, Xiaocheng; Shen, Yongjia; Sun, Zhihua published an article in 2012, the title of the article was Large-scale solvent-free chlorination of hydroxy-pyrimidines, -pyridines, -pyrazines and -amides using equimolar POCl3.Safety of 6-Methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione And the article contains the following content:
Chlorination with equimolar POCl3 can be efficiently achieved not only for hydroxypyrimidines, but also for many other substrates such as 2-hydroxypyridines, -quinoxalines, or even -amides. The procedure is solvent-free and involves heating in a sealed reactor at high temperatures using one equivalent of pyridine as base. It is suitable for large scale (multigram) batch preparations The experimental process involved the reaction of 6-Methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione(cas: 626-48-2).Safety of 6-Methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione
