Additional 6‐(alkylamino)‐5‐ethenyluracils ( 2d, 7 ) have been prepared for investigating substituent effects in thermal reactions. Like 2a , upon heating in Dowtherm® A 2d and 7 afford after saponification 6‐amino‐5‐(ethoxycarbonyl[phenyl]ethyl)uracils 4 and 8 , respectively. After refluxing in xylene the intermediary imines 11 and 12 can be isolated. Deuteration experiments reveal consecutive thermal [1,5]H‐migrations ( 2a – D 1 → 4 ‐D 1 , and 4 ‐D 2 ; 2a ′‐D 2 → 4 ′‐D 1 ). The mechanism is discussed.
