Sulfonic acid functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-Pr-SO3H) with pore size 6 nm as an efficient heterogeneous nanoporous solid acid catalyst exhibited good catalytic activity in the Biginelli-like reaction in the synthesis of spiroheterobicyclic rings with good yield and good recyclability. Spiro-pyrimidinethiones/spiro-pyrimidinones-barbituric acid derivatives were synthesized in a simple and efficient ...

The absolute configuration of three 4-aryl-3, 4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyrimidones (Biginelli compounds, DHPMs) was established by comparison of the typical circular dichroism (CD) spectra of individual enantiomers with reference samples of known absolute configuration. The enantiomers were obtained by semipreparative separation of racemic mixtures on a Chiralcel OD-H chiral stationary phase. The method...

Heterocyclic compounds containing a pyrimidine nucleus are of special interests due to their applications in medicinal chemistry as they are the basic skeleton of several bioactive compounds such as antifungal, antibacterial, antitumor and antitubercular. As a part of our research in the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives containing biological activities, some new tetrahydropyrimidine derivati...
