Procedure

Gaseous difluorochloromethane is passed into a solution of 62.5 g of 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-pyrimidine in 500 ml of water, 100 ml of 40% sodium hydroxide solution and 100 ml of dioxane at a temperature of 70°-75° C. over a period of 12 hours. During this period, at hourly intervals, a total of 160 g of solid sodium hydroxide is added in equal portions. The organic phase is separated off and concentrated to about 1/10 of its volume, the residue is poured into water and the solid which has precipitated is separated off to give 39.9 g of 2-amino-4-difluoromethoxy-6-methyl-pyrimidine of melting point 136°-137° C.
