A 2-halo-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid of formula: ##STR1## wherein X is a halogen atom, for example, 2-chloro-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid. A 2-substituted-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid derivative of formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 is a halogen atom, NH.sub.2 --, HO-- or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group and R.sub.2 is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group or a halogen atom with the proviso that, if R.sub.1 is a HO-- group, R.sub.2 is not a halogen atom and with the proviso that, if R.sub.2 is a halo group, R.sub.1 is not an amino group. A 2-substituted-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid derivative of formula III wherein R.sub.1 is a HO-- group and R.sub.2 is an ethoxy group.
