Methyl 2,6-bis-[(5-chloro-4,6-dimeth-oxy-pyrimidin-2-yl)-oxy]benzoate
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(20)H(18)Cl(2)N(4)O(8), the two pyrimidine rings are inclined at dihedral angles of 66.68 (5) and 71.91 (6)° with respect to the central benzene ring. In the crystal structure, inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link neighbouring mol-ecules into a ribbon-like structure along the b axis. The ribbons are inter-connected into a two-dimensional network parallel to the bc plane by short inter-molecular Cl⋯Cl [3.4427 (6) Å] and Cl⋯O [3.1420 (9) and 3.1750 (11) Å] inter-actions. The crystal structure is further stabilized by inter-molecular π-π inter-actions [centroid-centroid distance 3.4552 (8) Å] involving the pyrimidine rings.

Phase II Reactions: Methylation Reactions
The mechanism of methylation unfolds in two stages. The first stage sees a methyltransferase enzyme facilitating the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to the substrate, forming S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). The second stage involves further metabolism of SAH into homocysteine, which can be recycled...
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
