The condensation of 6-methylpyridine-3-carboxaldehyde (I) with malonic acid (II) by means of piperidine in refluxing pyridine gives 3-(6-methyl-3-pyridyl)acrylic acid (III), which is esterified with ethanol and H2SO4 as usual to afford ethyl 3-(6-methyl-3-pyridyl)acrylate (IV). The reduction of (IV) with H2 over Pd/C in ethanol affords ethyl 3-(6-methyl-3-pyridyl)propionate (V), which is cyclized with ethyl formate (VI) and thiourea (VII) by means of Na in ether-ethanol yielding 5-(6-methyl-3-pyridylmethyl)-2-thiouracil (VIII). The methylation of (VIII) with methyl iodide and NaOH in hot water gives 5-(6-methyl-3-pyridyl-methyl)-2-methylthio-4-pyrimidone (IX), which is finally condensed with 2-[(5-dimethylaminomethylfuran-2-yl)methylthio]ethylamine (X) in refluxing pyridine.
