The synthesis of new 5-benzyl-4-cyanomethyl-2-methylpyrimidine derivatives (5) containing chloro, methoxy, ethoxy, phenoxy and anilino groups at 6-position on the pyrimidine ring were prepared from 5-benzyl-4-chloro-2-methylpyrimidine derivatives (3) and tert-butylcyanoacetate. The derivatives of 5-benzyl-4-chloro-2-methylpyrimidine (3) containing chloro, methoxy, ethoxy, isopropoxy, phenoxy and anilino groups at 6-position on the pyrimidine ring were prepared from 5-benzyl-4,6-dichloro-2-methylpyrimidine (2).
