When isolating 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil from the reaction solution obtained in this way,
In a known method, unreacted substances such as isocyanate and the solvent are distilled off from the reaction solution under reduced pressure, and the reaction concentrate is injected into cold water to precipitate crystals of 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, or chloroform 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil is extracted with a solvent such as, and the target product is obtained by distilling off the extraction solvent and purifying the residue.

However, when injecting into cold water to precipitate crystals, the water not only decomposes the generated 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, but also reacts with unreacted isocyanates still remaining in the reaction concentrate. This is not preferable because it generates urea compounds. Furthermore, extraction with chloroform or the like requires multiple purification steps such as washing with water, dehydration, and concentration to dryness, so it is not an advantageous method. It has been found that the use of alcohols in place of water also creates unreacted isocyanates and carbamates that are incorporated into the desired product as impurities. Since 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil is used as a medicine, it is necessary to reduce the contamination of impurities as much as possible, and contamination of impurities during precipitation brings about a great disadvantage in the recrystallization purification process.

By precipitating and separating -5-fluorouracil, the impurity content is minimized and 1-fluorouracil is produced in high yield.
-A separation method capable of obtaining carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil has been completed.

From the above reaction concentrate, 1-carbamoyl-5-
As a precipitation solvent for precipitating fluorouracil, any aliphatic hydrocarbon or alicyclic hydrocarbon that remains liquid at room temperature, that is, around 30°C or lower, may be used, and C 5 to C 8 hydrocarbons are suitable. These solvents can be used alone or as a mixture. Particularly preferred are aliphatic saturated hydrocarbons, such as n-hexane and ligroin. Aromatic hydrocarbons can also be used, but are not preferred because they slightly dissolve 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil. Further, as the 1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil shown by formula (1), 1-n-propylcarbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, 1-iso-propylcarbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, 1-n-butylcarbamoyl-5 -Fluorouracil, 1-t-butylcarbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, 1-n-

The reaction solution is concentrated under a reduced pressure of 5 to 50 mmHg, preferably 20 to 30 mmHg, at a temperature in the range of 20 to 60°C, and the reaction solvent is evaporated to 10 to 80% of the amount used during the reaction. At this time, a portion of dissolved unreacted isocyanate is also distilled off. Store the concentrated reaction solution at −10 to 30℃.
1-carbamoyl-5-fluorouracil, which contains almost no impurities such as isocyanate reactants, can be obtained by injecting it into a precipitation solvent for aliphatic or alicyclic hydrocarbons maintained at Crystals are obtained. If this crude crystal is subjected to excessive separation, washed with water, dried, and further recrystallized with a solvent such as ethanol, a product with a purity of 99.95% or higher can be obtained.
