Abstract

Abstract In a process for the production of a thiophosphoric acid ester of formula I ##STR1## wherein R 1 is lower alkyl, lower alkenyl, lower alkoxy(lower)alkyl or lower alkylmercapto(lower)alkyl, R 2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or lower alkenyl and R 3 and R 4 are lower alkyl, which comprises reacting a dialkyl phosphoric acid halide of formula II ##STR2## wherein Hal is chlorine or bromine and R 3 and R 4 are as defined hereinabove, with a hydroxypyrimidine of formula III ##STR3## wherein R 1 and R 2 have the significance given to them above, at elevated temperatures and in the presence of an organic solvent and an acid-binding agent, the improvement which comprises adding the reactant of formula II to an essentially dry mixture of the hydroxypyrimidine of formula III and the acid-binding agent in the presence of a low molecular weight water-insoluble aliphatic or cycloaliphatic ketone as organic solvent after removing the water of reaction from said mixture.
