2-Thiouracil-containing nucleosides are essential modified units of natural and synthetic nucleic acids. In particular, the 5-substituted-2-thiouridines (S2Us) present in tRNA play an important role in tuning the translation process through codon-anticodon interactions. The enhanced thermodynamic stability of S2U-containing RNA duplexes and the preferred S2U-A versus S2U-G base pairing are appr...

In the title compound, C(18)H(15)N(3)O(3)·0.5CH(2)Cl(2), the fused ring benzofuro[2,3-d]pyrimidine system is essentially planar [maximum deviation 0.029 (1) Å]. The planes of the pyrimidinone and phenyl rings are nearly perpendicular [dihedral angle = 87.50 (14)°]. The packing of the mol-ecules in the crystal structure is governed mainly by inter-molecular O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter...

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....

Hexagonal mesoporous silica (SBA-15) was prepared and then functionalized by(3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane. The obtained 3-mercaptopropyl functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-Pr-SH) was then oxidized using H2O2 in methanol under an acidic condition to give sulfonic acid functionalized mesoporous silica (SBA-Pr-SO3H). Th...

Bropirimine (ABPP), a pyrimidinone, is currently under clinical trial for its antitumor potential. Bropirimine alone was marginally active against some experimental tumors such as B16 melanoma but was ineffective against others such as P388 or L1210 leukemia. However, it produced statistically significant synergistic activity against P388 leukemia when used in combination with cyclophosphamide ...

na2so4 as an inexpensive and effective catalyst has provided a green protocol for the synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran, pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidinone and dihydropyrano[3,2c]chromene derivatives from the three-component domino reaction of aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile with 4-hydroxycoumarin/ dimedone/ barbituric acid in ethanol/water as a mixture of solvent that, this mixture entirely is ...

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)°.
