Abstract
The correlation was seen between the positions of NH groups and the NH stretching pattern in infrared spectra of 1-substituted tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives and 3-substituted compounds. The measurement of the infrared spectra of these compounds in Nujol mull is useful to assign their structures. Differences in the reactivities between 1-NH and 3-NH groups were recognized by several reactions. Addition of dihydropyran to I occurred at 3-NH and the Michaeltype addition reaction proceeded giving N-1-adducts and N-1, 3-di-adducts.
