Elaborate on why a cyclic product is obtained in good

Reference no: EM13699126

In synthesizing 2-amino-4, 6-dimethylpyrimidine from guanidine carbonate and 2,4-pentanedione using sodium acetate, the reactants are bifunctional. Elaborate on why a cyclic product is obtained in good yield instead of a polymer? Between Guanidinium ion and Guanidine, which is the better nucleophile and why? What is the purpose of adding sodium acetate in the reaction mixture?
