Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

52.0 g of ethyl (N-methylsulfonyl-N-methylamino)sulfonylcarbamate are dissolved in 500 ml of chlorobenzene, 31.0 g of 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine are added at room temperature with stirring, and the mixture is heated at 80° C. for 3 hours. After cooling to 0° C., the precipitate is filtered off and washed with 100 ml of chlorobenzene. 72.7 g of the desired product of a purity of 98.5% are obtained, which corresponds to a yield of 97.2% of theory. The melting point of the product is 185°-186° C.
