This paper reports the synthesis of 2- and 4- [benzyl-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amino]pyrimidine compounds and the evaluation of their inhibitory properties against histamine (H1), acetylcholine and barium chloride, on guinea pig isolated ileum. 4-[p.Methoxybenzyl-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amino]-2-methoxy-pyrimidine (VIII) is shown to possess H1 receptor antagonist activity, with a potency similar to that observed for Tonzylamine.

Calculated pA2 values show that the antihistaminic activity of 4-[p.methoxybenzyl-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)amino]pyrimidine is specific and potent (8-10 times higher than that of thonzylamine).
