Abstract
Abstract: A new compound, 4,6-diamino-5-(methylbenzylidene)pyrimidin-2(5 H )-one, was synthesized and its IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and MS spectroscopic data are presented. Keywords: 4,6-diamino-5-(4-methylbenzylidene)pyrimidin-2(5 H )-one; urea; antimicrobial activity Pyrimidines and their derivatives are considered an important group of compounds because of the diversity of biological activities associated with these systems. Among the activities reported for pyrimidines have been found antifolate [1], antimicrobial [2], leishmanicidal [3], anticonvulsant [4], anti-rubella [5], anti-HIV [6], calcium channel modulation [7], and selective hepatitis B virus inhibition [8]. In the specialized literature, we can find different articles on the synthesis of substituted pyrimidines and many detailed reviews have appeared [9–12]. Recently, the Biginelli reaction is a well-known multicomponent reaction involving a one-pot cyclocondensation of an aldehyde, a methylene active compound and urea/thiourea for the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives [13–15]. Nevertheless, little attention is given to the synthesis and biological activity of the pyrimidine nucleus having the benzylidene group in position 5, close to amino groups at positions 4 and 6. We report here the synthesis and biological activity of 4,6-diamino-5-(4-methylbenzylidene)pyrimidin-2(5
This new compound, 4,6-diamino-5-(4-methylbenzylidene)pyrimidin-2(5H)-one, shows promising antimicrobial activity and potential for use in pharmaceuticals.
