Abstract
The carbodiimides 4, obtained from aza-Wittig reactions of iminophosphorane 3 with aromatic isocyanates, reacted with secondary amines to give 2-dialkylamino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones 6 in presence of catalytic EtO-Na+. Reactions of 4 with phenols or ROH in presence of catalytic K2CO3 or RO -Na+ gave 2-aryl(alkyl)oxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro- benzothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones 6 in satisfactory yields. The effects of the nucleophiles on cyclization have been investigated.
