Trifluoroacetic Acid as an Effective Catalyst for Biginelli Reaction: One-Pot, Three-Component Synthesis of 3,4-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (and-Thiones)

摘要

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is introduced as an effective catalyst for promotion of Biginelli reaction. 3,4-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (-thione) derivatives (DHPMs) were simply and efficiently prepared using TFA catalyzed one-pot, three-component condensationβ-dicarbonyl compounds, aldehydes and urea (thio).
