5-[1-(1,3-Dimethyl-2,4,6-trioxohexahydropyrimidin-5-yl)-2-oxopropyl]-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione

Abstract

The title compound, C15H18N4O7, is a product of the substitution reaction of 5,5-dibromo-1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid with sodium sulfide in aqueous acetone. In the crystal, molecules display neither intermolecular nor intramolecular hydrogen bonding and the two barbiturate rings adopt the keto form.
