2- Aryl-4/7-pyrido pyrimidin-4-ones

The reaction involves an electrophilic attack into the 5-position of the pyrimidine ring and thus only those pyrimidines that are activated toward electrophilic substitution by the presence of electron-donating substituents at the 2- and 4-positions undergo cyclization. 2,4,6-Triaminopyrimidine, 6-aminouracil, 6-amino-2-thiouracil, 4-amino-2,4 dimercaptopyrimidine, 2,4-diaminopyrimidin-6(l/I)-one, and various 4-amino-vV-alkyl and aryl pyriinidones have all been converted into pyrido[2,3-[Pg.160]

V. Acyl acetates. j8-Keto esters have proved useful for the preparation of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-ones bearing alkyl and aryl...
