A new and industrially useful method of producing 1(or 1,3-bis)-(tetrahydro-2-furyl)-5-fluorouracil or a mixture thereof by reacting 5-fluorouracil with 2,3-dihydrofuran at elevated temperature in a closed vessel. Depending upon reaction conditions, each of the above 5-fluorouracil derivatives or a mixture of them is produced. 1,3-Bis-(tetrahydro-2-furyl)-5-fluorouracil thus formed can be converted to 1-(tetrahydro-2-furyl)-5-fluorouracil by solvolysis under non-acidic conditions. |
