BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
6- (Perfluoroalkyl ) uracil compounds are useful as herbicidal agents and methods for their preparation are known in the art. 6- (Perfluoroalkyl) uracil compounds may be prepared by reacting 2- (N,N-disubstituted) amino-4 - (perfluoroalkyl) -1, 3 -oxazin-6-one compounds with amine compounds .
Bull. Soc. Chem. Belg. , 102(4), pages 313-321 (1992) discloses that 2- (N,N-dialkyl) amino-4- (trifluoromethyl) - 1, 3-oxazin-6-one compounds are prepared by reacting ethyl 3 -amino-4, 4 ,4-trifluorocrotonate with phosgene iminium chloride compounds. However, this method is not entirely satisfactory for the preparation of 2- (N,N-disub- stituted) amino-4- (perfluoroalkyl) -1, 3 -oxazin-6-one compounds because the required phosgene iminium chloride compounds are difficult to handle and relatively expensive. Accordingly, a need exists in the art for an improved process for the preparation of 2- (N,N-disub- stituted) amino-4- (perfluoroalkyl) -1 , 3 -oxazin-6-one compounds which avoids the use of phosgene iminium chloride compounds .
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide improved processes for the preparation of 2- (N,N-disubstituted) amino-4- (perfluoroalkyl) -1, 3-oxazin-6- one compounds .
It is also an object of the present invention to provide intermediate compounds which are useful in the preparation of 2- (N,N-disubstituted) amino-4- (perfluoro- alkyl) -1, 3 -oxazin-6-one compounds. It is a further object of the present invention to provide an improved process for the preparation of 6- (perfluoroalkyl) racil compounds .
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the description below and the appended claims .
