Abstract

Abstract: 1‐[4‐(3‐Hydroxyphenyl)‐6‐methyl‐2‐thioxo‐1, 2, 3, 4‐tetrahydropyrimidin‐5‐yl]ethanone (1 ) was used as a precursor for heterocyclic synthesis. Condensation of compound 1 with monochloroacetic acid and benzaldehyde gave thiazolopyrimidine 2 which in turn underwent cyclization with malononitrile dimmer to afford malononitrile derivative 3 . Also, the reaction of compound 1 with benzaldehyde under a basic condition produced chalcone 4 . Chalcone 4 can be used as a key intermediate for further preparation of heterocyclic compounds. In addition, compound 1 was allowed to react with malononitrile dimmer and/or ethyl chloroacetate to give pyrimidines 8 and 9, respectively. Alkylation of compound 8 with ethyl chloroacetate afforded S ‐alkylated product 10 which was treated with hydrazine hydrate to yield the hydrazino derivative 11 . Alternative synthesis of compound 10 was taken place through reaction of compound 9 with malononitrile dimmer. The biological activity of the synthesized compounds was investigated. Compounds 1, 4, 5, and 8 recorded high activities against Gram positive bacteria ( S. aureus ). Structures of the new synthesized compounds were elucidated by elemental analysis and spectral data.
