Abstract

This work describes two distinct routes to prepare pyrazolo[1,5-alpha]pyrimidin-7-ones and two distinct routes to prepare pyrazolo[1,5-alpha]pyrimidin-5-ones. Use of 1,3-dimethyluracil as the electrophile in the preparation of the pyrimidin-5-one regioisomer represents a correction of previously reported results. Also, a novel reaction to prepare this isomer was identified and the reaction mechanism elucidated. This work provides the experimentalist with complimentary synthetic pathways that afford either the pyrimidin-7-one or the pyrimidin-5-one regioisomer.
