Abstract
Photolysis of 4,6-di-R-pyrimidine 1-oxides (R = Ph or But) in methanol with a high-pressure mercury arc and a Rayonet RPR 2537 Å lamp, respectively, leads to 3,5-di-R-pyrazoles. In the case R = Ph, in addition to the pyrazole, 2-methoxy-4,6-diphenylpyrimidine is obtained. This compound is considered to be formed via an oxaziridine intermediate, the existence of which was indicated by the liberation of iodine from potassium iodide.Keywords
