1,3-Bis(4-methoxybenzyl)-6-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione

Abstract

The title compound, C21H22N2O4, was prepared by reaction of 6-methylpyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione and 1-chloromethyl-4-methoxybenzene. In the title molecule, the central pyrimidine ring forms dihedral angles of 62.16 (4) and 69.77 (3)° with the two benzene rings. In the crystal, weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains.
