TI - Reaction of Several Aminopyrimidines With Formaldehyde PY - 1962/// PB - [Gaithersburg, MD] : U.S. Dept. of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology, KW - Text KW - local N1 - /pmc/articles/PMC5327744 N2 - Formaldehyde has been shown to react with 2-aminopyrimidine (II) and 2-(methylamino) pyrimidine (V) at room temperature to give the corresponding methylol derivatives or the corresponding methylenebis(aminopyrimidines). The reaction of formaldehyde with 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-5-methylpyrimidine (VII) and also its failure to react with 2-(dimethylamino)pyrimidine (IX) are cited as evidence that the pyrimidine ring is not involved in the reaction UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.6028/jres.066A.007 ER -
