A new azido compound, 5-amino-6-chloro-2,4-diazido-pyrimidine, and a process for synthesizing. The synthesis may include reacting 5-amino-2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine and sodium azide. There is an excess molar amount of sodium azide for each chloro fractional molar amount on the 5-amino-2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine. The synthesis is a two phase reaction that is a dispersion. The 5-amino-2,4,6-trichloropyrimidine dissolved in acetone is a liquid phase, and the sodium azide is insoluble in acetone and is a solid phase, that is present in excess of chemical equivalents. The reaction product is soluble in acetone, and the reaction by-product, sodium chloride is also insoluble in acetone, and the crude yield is about 92%. Unreacted sodium azide and formed sodium chloride are removed by filtration.
