A process for the preparation of 6-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,4-triazine-3-5-diamine (lamotrigine) of the formula I: 2,3-Dichloronitrobenzene in C1-C6aliphatic alkanol is hydrogenated at 55-90 psi gas pressure using metal catalyst at 27-35° C. 2,3-Dichloroaniline is diazotised and cyano-de-diazonised with metal cyanide at 65-80° C. 2,3-Dichlorobenzonitrile is hydrolysed and 2,3-dichlorobenzoic acid is chlorinated at 55-130° C. Cyano-de-halogenation of 2,3-dichlorobenzoyl chloride is carried out with a metal cyanide and alkali metal iodide by refluxing in an aprotic solvent under an inert atmosphere. 2,3-Dichlorobenzoyl cyanide is condensed with aminoguanidine bicarbonate in an organic solvent in acidic conditions using catalyst at 90-125° C. followed by insitu cyclisation of the Schiff's base by refluxing in an aliphatic alkanol with base. Crude lamotrigine is purified.

The present invention provides a process for preparing a compound of the general formula (I): wherein R1 to R5 are independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, C1-6 alkyl, C2-6 alkenyl, C2-6 alkynyl or C1-6 alkoxy, all optionally substituted by one or more of halogen, hydroxy and aryl groups, as well as being independently selected from amino, mono- or disubstituted amino, alkenyloxy, acyl, acyloxy, cyano, nitro, aryl and alkylthio groups, which process comprises reacting a compound of the general formula (II): wherein R1 to R5 are as defined in formula (I), with aminoguanidine bicarbonate in a mixture of a water-soluble solvent and polyphosphoric acid.
