Procedure

To a solution of 4-chloro-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methylthio-pyrimidine (25.33 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (85 ml) are added a solution of 3-chloro-4-methoxybenzylamine (19.62 g) in N,N-dimethyl-formamide (15 ml) and triethylamine (16.7 ml) under ice-cooling. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes, and thereto is added 3-chloro-4-methoxybenzylamine (940 mg), and the mixture is further stirred for 15 minutes. To the mixture is further added said amine (940 mg), and the mixture is stirred for 15 minutes. The reaction mixture is poured into a mixture of ice water and citric acid, and the mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract is washed successively with a 10% aqueous citric acid solution, water and brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue is washed with n-hexane to give 4-(3-chloro-4-methoxybenzylamino)-5-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methylthiopyrimidine (38.34 g), m.p. 86° C.
