Syntheses of 7-Alkyl-1,3,6-trimethylpyrrolo(2,3-d)pyrimidines and 4- Alkylamino-2,5-dimethyl-2,3-dihydrofuro(3,2-e)pyrimidines.

7-Alkyl-1, 3, 6-trimethylpyrrolo[2, 3-d]pyrimidine-2, 4(1H, 3H)-diones were readily synthesized by treatment of 6-alkylamino-5-allyl-1, 3-dimethyluracils, which were derived from 5-allyl-6-chloro-1, 3-dimethyluracil and alkylamines, with bis(acetonitrile) palladium (II) chloride. In addition, 4-alkylamino-2, 5-dimethyl-2, 3-dihydrofuro[3, 2-e]pyrimidin-6-ones were easily synthesized by treatment of 5-allyl-6-chloro-1-methyluracil with alkylamines.
