Process for preparing 4-[(1,6-dihydro-6-oxo-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]benzonitrile

摘要

This invention relates to a process for preparing 4-[(1,6-dihydro-6-oxo-2-pyrimidinyl)-amino]benzonitrile (I) starting from a 4-oxo-1,6-dihydro-pyrimidinylcarboxylic acid ester (II) or starting from a guanidine derivative which is reacted with an alkoxy-methylene malonic acid ester to an ester (II) which is converted to (I), which reaction sequence may be a one-pot procedure.
