Abstract

Thiophene-substituted chalcones were cyclised with guanidine in the presence of potassium hydroxide to get 4-substituted-6-thiophenopyrimidines 2a–e which were then refluxed with acetylacetone to obtain pyrimidopyrimidines 3a–e. Compounds 2a–e were also refluxed with ethylacetoacetate to afford pyirmidopyirimidines 4a–e which on refluxing with POCl3 in presence of DMF produced compounds 5a–e. Nucleophilic substitution reactions on 5a-e were carried out with aniline to obtain 6a-e. The structures of the newly synthesised compounds have been confirmed by elemental analysis and spectral studies. Some selected compounds have been screened for antibacterial and analgesic activities.
