Process for making pyrimidine derivatives

Abstract

The present invention provides a process for the manufacture of pyrimidines of formula I: wherein R1, R2, R3 each independently represent hydrogen, C1-7-alkyl, or C1-7-alkoxy, A signifies —CN, a carbanionic R4-alkynyl residue, in which R4 is hydrogen or C1-7-alkyl, or a carbanionic residue of the malonic acid derivative of formula III in which B and B′ independently represent —CN, —COOR5, or —C(O)R5, wherein R5 is alkyl or aryl.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
