  • Patent number: 6087499
    Abstract: A novel process is provided for producing a 5-perfluoroalkyl-5,6-dihydrouracil represented by General Formula (1): ##STR1## (where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are independently hydrogen, methyl, or ethyl, and Rf is a perfluoroalkyl of 1 to 10 carbons). The process comprises reacting .alpha.-perfluoroalkylacrylic acid represented by General Formula (2):CH.sub.2 =C(Rf)--COOH (2)with a urea derivative represented by General Formula (3):R.sup.1 NHCONHR.sup.2 (3)in the presence of acetic anhydride with formed acetic acid being removed out of the reaction system during the reaction. The .alpha.-perfluoroalkylacrylic acid may be added successively. A process for producing a 5-perfluoroalkyl-5-bromo-6-hydrouracil by General Formula (4) is also provided: ##STR2## (where R.sup.1, R.sup.2, and Rf are as defined above) wherein the reaction of a 5-perfluoroalkyl-5,6-dihydrouracil produced by the above process with bromine is conducted in water as the solvent.
