Abstract
Abstract Starting from tetrafluoropyrimidine (1), selective fluorine/chlorine exchange reactions and selective hydrogenolysis of the chlorine substituents are described. Combination of these methods, together with a subsequent hydrolysis reaction, provides a new route to the synthesis of 5-fluorouracil via 4, 6-dichloro-2, 5-difluoropyrimidine and 4- chloro-2, 5-difluoropyrimidine.
