A sodium derivative of 1,3‐dimefhylbarbituric acid or 1,3‐diethyl‐2‐thiobarbituric acid undergoes an efficient monoacylation at C5 by the reaction with ω‐chloroalkanoyl chloride or diacid dichloride in the presence of pyridine in tetrahydrofuran. A nucleophilic displacement of the chlorine in a 5‐chloroacetyl‐bartiburate can be accomplished by using a one‐pot procedure. By contrast, a similar transformation of a 5‐(chlorobutanoyl)barbituric acid requires intramolecular cyclization in the presence of a nonnucleophilic base followed by treatment with a nucleophile of the resultant 5‐[4,5‐dihydro(3 H )‐2‐furylidene]barbiturate.
