The title compound, C(24)H(22)N(4)O(2)·H(2)O, was synthesized by the trimethyl-chloro-silane-catalysed reaction between urea, benzaldehyde and acetophenone. The organic mol-ecule comprises two fused tetra-hydro-pyrimidinone rings with phenyl substituents at the 4- and 5-positions on the tetra-hydro-pyrimidinone rings and a third phenyl substituent at the ring junction 8-position. The 4- and 5-s...

tetra-n-butyl ammonium hydroxide was used as a catalyst for one-pot, three component condensation reactions consisting of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and barbituric acid in ethanol:water solvent system at 60oc. current method has major advantages like mild reaction conditions with simple operation, high yields, by using a less toxic and lower costlier catalyst.in conclusion, we have explo...

Heterocyclic scaffold has been under discovery due to their considerable therapeutic and medicinal importance. One of such heterocycles 2-pyrimidinone, while not naturally occurring, are receiving increased attention because of their wide-ranging biological activity like, an efficient inhibitor of DNA synthesis in E. coli, inhibitors of the enzyme cytidinedeaminase, and as metaphase inhibitors....

Pyrano [2,3-d] pyrimidinone derivatives have received considerable interest from the pharmaceutical industry due to their wide range of interesting biological and therapeutic properties. Nano Al2O3 was found to be a highly efficient solid acid catalyst for the preparation of pyrano [2,3-d] pyrimidinone derivatives from the reaction of barbituric acid, aryl aldehyde and mal...

The mol-ecular and crystal structures of the title compound, C(16)H(14)FN(3)O(2), are stabilized by intra-molecular N-H⋯O and inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The existence of non-classical intra-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds provides a dihedral angle between the fluoro-substituted benzene and pyrimidinone rings of 7.9 (1)°.

2-Amino-5-nitro-6-ribitylamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone (7) was phosphorylated with chlorophosphoric acid yielding an isomer mixture containing about 63% of the 5'-phosphate 7a together with other monophosphates and bisphosphates of 7. Preparative HPLC afforded pure 7a. Catalytic hydrogenation of 7a yields the labile substrate of pyrimidine deaminase, 2,5-diamino-6-ribitylamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone 5'-...

Coupling reaction between electron-rich 2-morpholino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone and nucleophilic side chains of several natural α-amino acids promoted by phosphonium salt has been developed to prepare new optically active pyrimidin-4-yl amino acids. The best results were obtained using a two-step method through the easily available benzotriazolyl-1-oxy intermediate. A detailed optimization study of thi...

The 2-thiouridine (S2U) unit in the RNA strand is predominantly desulfured with H(2)O(2) to 4-pyrimidinone nucleoside (H2U). The resulting H2U-RNA exhibits significantly lower binding affinity to its complementary strand and in certain conditions undergoes strand scission. These results may explain the tRNA loss of biological function in oxidative stress conditions.

Polymer, heal thyself! Supramolecular ABA triblock copolymers formed by dimerization of 2-ureido-4-pyrimidinone (UPy) end-functionalized polystyrene-b-poly(n-butyl acrylate) (PS-b-PBA) AB diblock copolymers have been synthesized, resulting in a self-healing material that combines the advantageous mechanical properties of thermoplastic elastomers and the dynamic self-healing features of supramol...
