Abstract

A series of novel pyrimidines (6a–6i) has been synthesized from corresponding chalcones and isonicotinimidamide.HCl in the presence of potassium carbonate involving Michael addition followed by cycloaddition. All newly synthesised chalcones and pyrimidines were screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity against various Gram positive, Gram negative bacterial and fungal strains. Most of compounds displayed high antimicrobial activity compared to standard drugs Penicillin, Streptomycin and Ampothericin-B.
