The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes then 4-benzyloxy-6-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (300 mg) was added and the reaction was heated to reflux for five hours. Solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to yield crude product. Purification of the resulting residue by flash chromatography on silica afforded product 4-hydroxy-6-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-pyrimidine-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (104 mg).
