5-propan-2-ylideneimidazolidine-2,4-dione

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Doyle et al, J. Chem. Soc. 1955, 2265-73 (Chemical Abstracts 1956, 50, 8602g at 8603b) teach the preparation of 5-iso-propylidenehydantoin via the reaction of acetone with 2-thiohydantoin in piperdine to yield 5-iso-propylidene-2-thiohydantoin which is then desulfurized with chloroacetic acid to yield 5-iso-propylidenehydantoin.

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:

Conditions: temp:50.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 5-Isopropylidenehydantoin (5.6 g 0.04 mole) Journal of the Chemical Society, 2265 (1955) was added to a stirred suspension of sodium hydride (2.0 g 50% dispersion-oil removed by washing with light petroleum) in dry dimethylformamide (50 ml) and the mixture then heated at 50° C. for 15 minutes after which time a cream coloured solid separated. The mixture was cooled to room-temperature, a solution of n-butyl bromide (6.0 g 0.044 mole) in dry dimethylformamide (25 ml) added and the mixture heated at 80° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and evaporated to dryness in a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in water (200 ml) and extracted with ether (3×50 ml). The ethereal solution was dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed to yield a solid (6.6 g) which was crystallised from light petroleum (b.p. 60°-80° C.) to yield the title compound as needles, m.p. 130° C. Yield=4.3 g=55%. separated The mixture was cooled to room-temperature the mixture heated at 80° C. for 4 hours The mixture was cooled to room temperature evaporated to dryness in a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure The residue was dissolved in water (200 ml) extracted with ether (3×50 ml) The ethereal solution was dried (MgSO4) the solvent removed
