A simple and economic synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones using ammonium trifluoroacetate as catalyst and as solid support is accomplished. Easy workup procedure for the synthesis of title compounds is well arrived at and is well documented.

A new facile cost-effective method for the oxidation of acetyl and carboethoxy derivatives of 3,4dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (DHPMs) by using potassium peroxydisulfate in water as solvent under microwave irradiation has been developed. Whereas the presence of the acetyl group instead of the carboethoxy group in position 5 decreases the rate of oxidation, the nature of the additional subtituent ...

In 1893, P. Biginelli reported the synthesis of functionalized 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (DHPMs) via three-component condensation reaction of an aromatic aldehyde, urea, and ethyl acetoacetate. In the past decade, this long-neglected multicomponent reaction has experienced a remarkable revival, mainly due to the interesting pharmacological properties associated with this dihydropyrimidin...

In this study, a variety of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones derivatives were synthesized via three-component Biginelli reaction. The quaternary ammonium- treated clay -catalyzed process proved to be simple, efficient, and environmentally friendly.

A rapid and convenient synthesis of 5-unsubstituted 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-ones and thiones was developed. The reaction involves a one-pot reaction between oxalacetic acid, thiourea/urea, and aldehyde under microwave irradiation and provides the products in good yields and much shorter reaction times. 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Reaction of ethyl-6-methyl-2-oxo-4-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-carboxylates (1a-i) with hydrazine hydrate yielded 6-methyl-2-oxo-4-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-carbohydrazides (2a-i). These products, on reaction with cyanogen bromide, gave 5-(5-amino-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-6-methyl-4-aryl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2 (1H)-ones (3a-i). The resultant aminooxadiazolylpyrimidinones were conde...
