A novel protocol for preparation of tegafur (a prodrug of 5-fluorouracil) is reported. The process involves the 1,8-diazabicycloundec-7-ene-mediated alkylation of 5-fluorouracil with 2-acetoxytetrahydrofuran at 90 °C, followed by treatment of the prepurified mixture of the alkylation products with aqueous ethanol at 70 °C. The yield of the two-step process is 72%.

1-(Tetrahydro-2-furyl)pyrimidine and 9-(tetrahydro-2-furyl)purine derivatives were successfully synthesized in good yields by the reactions of trimethylsilylated pyrimidine and purine bases with 2-acetoxytetrahydrofuran using a new catalyst of cesium chloride in acetonitrile under mild conditions.

5-Fluorouracil derivative having the formula STR1 wherein R represents hydrogen atom or 2-tetrahydrofuryl group is produced by reacting more than equi-mole of 2,3-dihydrofuran with 5-fluorouracil in a polar aprotic solvent with a catalytically effective amount of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of metal halides, non-metal halides, tertiary amine salt of inorganic acids and organic acids in neutral or basic condition at 50° to 150° C under pressure.
