Fimasartan (Kanarb®), an angiotensin II receptor antagonist with selectivity for the AT1 receptor subtype, is a pyrimidinone-related heterocyclic compound that was developed by Boryung Pharm. Co., Ltd. Among numerous synthetic derivatives, fimasartan was chosen as a new drug candidate through in vitro and in vivo screening studies. Pharmadynamic-pharmacokinetic properties and safety profiles we...

in the present of methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate, the synthesis of arylidene heterobicyclic pyrimidinones is studied by condensation of aromatic aldehyde, cyclopentanone, and urea or thiourea. using solvent-free conditions, non-toxic and inexpensive materials, simple and clean work-up, short reaction times and good yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

Starting from 6-aryl-4-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile (4a-d), a series of mono- and dialkyl derivatives 5a-j and 6a, b was synthesized. Hydrazinolysis of 4a, b, d and 5d afforded the hydrazino derivatives 7a-c which were cyclised to give the triazolopyrimidinones 8a-c and the pyrimidotriazinones 9a-c through the reaction with formic acid and chloroacetyl chloride, resp...
