A Facile One-pot Synthesis of Fused 2-Thiouracils: Dipyrimidinopyridine, Pyrazolopyrimidine and Pyridazinopyrimidines

Abstract

A novel fused thiouracil containing a heterocyclic ring system, dipyrimidinopyridine (3), has been prepared through the cyclization of compound 2. Compound 2 was formed by the formylation of 6-amino-2-thiouracil 1, pyrazolopyrimidines 8-10 via the heating of 6-arylhydrazono-2-thiouracils 5-7, compound 11, using Vilsmeier reagent with compound 4, pyrazolylpyrimidine 12, indolodiazinopyrimidine 14 and pyridazino-pyrimidine 15. Pyridazino-pyrimidine 15 was formed by the condensation of compound 4 with acetylacetone, isatin and benzyl, respectively.
