Reaction Steps

N-Methyl-N'-(3-chlorophenyl)urea was prepared preliminarily from 3-chlorophenyl isocyanate and methylamine by the same procedure as in Reference Example 1. The urea compound as the starting material was reacted with cyanoacetic acid to form a uracil ring. Using sodium nitrite a nitroso group was introduced into the 5-position of the uracil ring in the obtained 6-amino-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-3-methyluracil and then reduced with hydrogen gas to prepare 1-(3-chlorophenyl)-5,6-diamino-3-methyluracil.
