Abstract
In the present investigation ethyl 2-(4-carboxyphenylazo)acetoacetate 1 on condensation with various aromatic aldehydes in ethanolic NaOH solution yielded the corresponding chalcones 2a-j. These chalcones were further reacted with urea in the presence of base in ethanol, which led to the formation of pyrimidine derivatives 3a-j. The newly synthesized heterocyles were characterized on the basis of their chemical properties and spectroscopic data. All newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimycobacterial activities against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.
