Abstract

Alkylation of 1-methyltetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione (N-methylpropylenethiourea) with chloro- and bromoacetic acids and their esters have given the 8-methyl-3-oxo-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-ium chloride or  bromide. The former is readily hydrolyzed in 95% ethanol to 3-[(3-methylamino)propyl]-1,3-thiazolidine-2,4-dione hydrochloride while the second is more stable towards hydrolysis such that the corresponding hydrobromide is not  separated. A paradoxical trend in the extent of the hydrolysis decreasing with  the content of the water in the alcoholic solution comes to a complete stop in water. A possible explanation of this phenomenon is given.
