“…The biological (1)(2)(3) , bactericidal (4) and medicinal (5,6) activities of theino [2,3-d] pyrimidine derivatives have recently attracted considerable attention (7,8) . In view of the above findings and in continuation to our interest on the use of hydrazonoyl halides for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds incorporating different functionalities of biological importance (9,10) we reported here a facile and short synthesis of the title compounds starting from either 2,4-thioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-4H-cyclopenta [4,5] thieno [2,3-d] pyrimidin-2,4-dithione (1) or 2(4-dihydro-5-oxo-3-methyl-1H-pyrazolo-1-yl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrothieno [2,3-d] pyrimidin-4 (3H,1H)-one (11) and hydrazonoyl halides (2) .…”
