Abstract

The reaction of thioxopyrimidine derivative 1a with chloroacetic acid and p-chlorobenzaldehyde gave compound 2. Alkylation of 1b using chloroacetonitrile gave N-alkylated derivative 6 which was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give 7. Compound 7 was cyclized with formic and nitrous acid to give 8 and 9, respectively. The reaction of 1b with phosphorous oxychloride gave chloropyrimidine derivative 10 which was reacted and cyclized with different reagents to give compounds 1123. The antimicrobial activity was studied against examples of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
