Procedure

A mixture of 100 g (0.623 mole) of 6-chloromethylpyrimidine-2,4-dione and 200 ml of anhydrous ammonia was allowed to react overnight in a sealed bomb at about 20° C. The solid residue was slurried in ethyl acetate, and was then separated by filtration and washed sequentially with water and methanol to provide 6-aminomethylpyrimidine-2,4-dione, m.p. 295°-297° C.
