Abstract
Dehydrogenation of various 2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxamides (THPMs) to 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxamides (DHPMs) using tetrabutylammonium peroxydisulfate (TBAPS) as an efficient oxidizing agent under thermal and sono-thermal conditions has been investigated. In contrast to the thermal reaction, a decrease of the amount of oxidant and an increase of the rate of reaction are observed by simultaneously applying heat and ultrasound. The nature of both C-4 and C-5 substituents on the heterocyclic ring influences the rate of reaction under both conditions. The proposed electron-transfer-induced dehydrogenation in this study is supported by conductometric studies.
