[2‐Alkylthio‐6‐methyl‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐3(4 H )‐yl]acetonitriles ( 3‐5 ) treated with sodium methoxide in methanol followed by ammonium chloride were cyclized to 2‐imino‐7‐methyl‐2,3‐dihydroimidazo[1,2‐ a ]‐pyrimidin‐5(1 H )‐ones ( 6‐8 ). Under acid or base‐catalyzed hydrolysis they were converted to 7‐methyl‐imidazo[1,2‐ a ]pyrimidine‐2,5‐[1 H ,3 H ]‐diones ( 9‐11 ), whereas in the reaction with butyl‐ or benzylamine the corresponding 7‐methyl‐2‐(substitutedamino)imidazo[1,2‐ a ]pyrimidin‐5(3 H )‐ones ( 13‐18 ) were produced. The latter were found to exist in two tautomeric forms in CDCl 3 solution.
