introduction | N4-acetylcytosine is white or beige solid at normal temperature and pressure. it belongs to pyrimidine derivatives. like pyridine, pyrimidine also retains aromaticity and is commonly used as raw material for pharmaceutical intermediates and sensitizers. |
Uses | N4-acetylcytosine plays an important role in the synthesis of pyrimidine anti-tumor drugs and anti-AIDS drugs. In the synthesis and transformation, the nitrogen atom on the pyrimidine ring can react with methyl iodide to obtain the product of amide nitrogen atom methylation. |
synthesis method | add acetic anhydride (2.1 ml, 22.05 mmol) to stirred cytosine (500 mg) in a solution of pyridine (2.5 ml), stir the obtained mixture overnight at room temperature, dilute the mixture with EtOAc(2.0 mL), the mixture was stirred again at room temperature for 30 minutes, the resulting white solid was filtered, the solid was washed with EtOAc, and then the solid was dried under vacuum to obtain the product N4-acetylcytosine. |
