A New Convenient Synthesis of Tetra Substituted Pyrimidines and Their Antimicrobial Screening Report
An efficient and novel strategy has been developed using potassium carbonate as catalyst for synthesis of 4-amino-2-methyl-6-(methylthio)pyrimidine-5-carbonitrile (3) by condensing acetamidine hydrochloride (1) with bis(methylthio)methylene malononitrile (2) in DMF. Compound (3) is susceptible to nucleophilic substitution reaction due to presence of methylthio group at sixth position, which is replaced by different nucleophiles such as substituted…
