“…11 Among MCRs, Biginelli (aldehydes or ß-keto esters with urea/thiourea) 12 and Traube-Schwarz (α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with amidines, guanidines or heterocyclic amines) 13 reactions are served as powerful tools in the development of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones and tricyclic 1,6-dihydropyrimidines in the presence of promoters such as base, 13a microwave, 13b thiamine hydrochloride, 14 H 3 BO 3 , 15 melamine trisulfonate, 16 ionic liquid (1,1,3,3-N,N,N',N'-tetramethylguanidinium trifluoroacetate or [bmim]BF 4 ), 17-18 N,N'-dichlorobis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) urea, 19 α-zirconium sulfophenylphosphonate, 20 H 2 NSO 3 H 21 and tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (TBAHS). 13d Recently, we have reported the effective and efficient synthesis of pyrimidone derivatives using Biginelli reactions.…”
