A process for preparing a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are lower alkoxy or taken together are methylenedioxy; R.sub.3 is lower alkyl or hydrogen, which comprises the step of reacting an aromatic compound of the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are as previously described, with a diamino-pyrimidine of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.4 is lower alkoxy, benzyloxy, hydroxy or halogen, in the presence of an inorganic or organic acid selected from the group consisting of ortho-phosphoric acid, poly-phosphoric acid, hydrohalic acids and tri-haloacetic acids, at a temperature in the range of from about 50.degree. C. to about 110.degree. C., is described.
