Abstract

Electron impact ionization mass spectrometry indicates that the behavior of W-unsubstituted pyrirnidin-4-ones with CH2-R type substitution at C-2 differs from homologs that are N-substituted and/or 2-aryl- or 2-methyl-substituted. A dominant intramolecular cycliza-tion was found to occur between 3ZV (in agreement with the predominance of the 3NH tautomers) and the ortho positions of the aryl moiety in compounds with a CH2-aryl substitution at C-2. Theoretical calculations with an AMI SCFR method on 2-, 6-, and 2, 6-disubstituted pyrimidin-4-ones support the mass spectrometric observations.
