The compounds of the present invention are represented by the formula ~ (I) ~3 ~ ~-C~

wherein Rl, R2, and R3 are individually hydrogen, halogen, linear or branched alkoxy groups, or linear or branched alkyl groups. The alkoxy and alkyl groups, in the broadest scope of the invention, have 1 to 8 carbon atoms. In a more preferred form c,f the invention, each of these groups contains 1 to 4 carbon atoms. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of these basic compounds are also suitable.
Preferred are compounds of Eormula I, wherein R , R and R3 are alkoxy groups and/or alkyl groups, especially preferred alkoxy groups are methoxy groups and ethoxy groups, especially methoxy groups. Especially preferred alkyl groups are methyl groups and ethyl groups, especially methyl groups. Preferably two of the substituents are alkoxy groups and the third substituent is hydrogen or an alkoxy group.

hypolipidemic effects and reduced toxicity, especially when compared with such known drugs as clofibrate. This is particularly true for those compounds wherein Kl and R~ are alkoxy and R3 is hydrogen.
In addition to the foregoing, these compounds exhibit valuable anti-hypertensive properties. In hypertensive rats, ' a dose of 1 to 30 mg/kg p~oduced these therapeutlc effects and no central side efEects. Similarly, the alpha-receptor bloc~ade, which is undesirable because of annoying accompany-ing effects, was also absent.
Hence, the compounds of the present invention are suitable for humans for the treatment of hyperlipidemia and/or diseases of the cardiac-circulatory system, especially hypertension.
The daily dose is between 10 and 1000 mg/person and it is preferab y given two to four times a day in amounts of 5 to 1 500 mg/person. Alternatively, it can be given with advantage ! once a day in a time-release form. The preferred daily dose is from 50 to 300 mg per person.

The use of the usual derivatives, as well as suitable diluents, adjuvants, or vehicles is also contemplated.
Administration can be oral or parenteral. The compounds can take the form of tablets, pillr,, syrups, suspensions, and liquids for oral adminstration. When administered parenterally, they should be provided as solutions or suspensions.

The tablets may contain additives, adjuvants, granulating agents, aids to disintegration, binders, lubricants, etc. The nature of these materials is generally known and need not be expressly set forth here.

~152U7~

The tablets can also be coated in order to delay disintegration and absorption in the gastro-intestinal tract.
In this manner, the effectiveness of the active ingredient can be extended over a long period of time. The pharmaceutical preparations can advantageously contain the active ingredient in an amount of 0.1 to 90/0, preferably l.O to 90~/0. The balance being usually a vehicle or adjuvant. For ease of manufacture and administration, the solid forms (such as tablets and capsules) are preferred. Such preparations can contain the active substance in an amount of 50 to 300 mg, corresponding to the preferred daily dose.

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared from aminopyrimidines of the formula (II) ~2 .. .. .. . .

by reaction with benzoylisothiocyanate, whereby the corresponding benzoylthioureas are obtained which are then hydrolized to produce the desired compound. The benzoylisothiocyanate can be obtained from ammonium thiocyanate and benzoyl chloride.

~lsza74 - In a preferred method of preparing the com~ounds of the present invention, the ammonium thiocyanate, benzoyl chloride, and aminopyrimidine are reacted together in an organic solvent under heating. The solvent is preferably boiling acetone. It is preferred to carry out the reaction from ambient temperature to the boilin~ point of the solvent over a period of 30 minutes to 3 hours, preferably 30 minutes to 1 hour. The reaction mixture is then introduced into water and the reaction product is extracted with a solvent which is immiscible with water, preferably chloroform. The thiourea derivatives obtained are then hydrolized, e.g. in the presence of bases and, if necessary, with heating in order to separate the benzoyl radical. Suitable bases are dilute lye and sodium methylate solution.

The aminopyrimidines used as starting materials are either known or obtainable in a known manner from available starting materials (see D. J. Brown, "The Pyrimidines", 1962 Interscience Publishers).

In the thioureas of the present invention wherein Rl and R2 are alkoxy (preferably methoxy), and R3 has the usual meaning, a new alkoxy radical can be introduced by reacting with a corresponding alcoholate. This reaction is preferably carried out with equimolar amounts of sodium alcoholate in an alcohol which corresponds to the alcoholate. It is desirable to carry out the reaction at an elevated temperature, preferably at the boiling temperature of the alcohol. In this manner the compounds of the present invention wherein Rl and R are alkoxy radicals which may be different from each other can be formed.

~15Z(~7~

Alkoxypyrimidines can be obtained from halopyrimidines by reaction with alcoholate in a suitable solvent. It is preEerred that the solvent be an alcohol correspondinK to the alcoholate. If a plurality of halogen atoms is present on the nucleus, either one or more can be substituted by the corresponding alkoxy groups by a suitable selection of reaction conditions, particularly the concentration of alcoholate and reaction temperature. The process is most suitable for those compounds wherein the halogen is chlorine. It is also possible to introduce different alkoxy groups successively and the reactions can generally be carried out with both the halo-5-nitropyrimidines and with halo-5-aminopyrimidines.

The chlorine atoms which are linked to the pyrimidine ring can be separated by catalytic hydration in the presence of a base. The removal of such atoms can also be effected by reacting corresponding chloropyrimidines with hydrazine, followed by separation of the hydrazine group with silver (I) oxide. The hydrazine reaction is preferably carried out in a suitable solvent tespecially methanol or ethanol~, at temperatures between 0C and the boiling point of the solvent.
The reaction with silver (I) oxi~e is also carried out under the same general conditions.

Chloronitropyrimidines of the formula Cl Rc- ~ ~ No2 (III) ~ ~ .

li52(~7~

can be obtained from hydroxypyrimidines of the fornlula C~
~ (IV) wherein Rl and R2 are hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, or alkyl or alkoxy groups with l to 8 carbon atoms each, by reaction with a suitable chlorinating agent. The most preferred process uses phosphoroxy trichloride in the presence of a tertiary amine, such as diethylene aniline. These reactions are most preferably carried out without solvents at an elevated temperature.

The substituted nitropyrimidines can be converted to the aminopyrimidines of Formula II by catalytic hydration in the presence of Raney nickel at a pressure of 1 to lO bar.
Alcohols can be used as the solvent, and methanol is preferable. The reaction temperature is from room temperature to approximately 50C.
