Abstract
An efficient synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones from aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, and urea using copper nitrate under refluxing temperature in ethanol was described. Compared with other Lewis copper salts, copper nitrate proved to be the most efficient. The advantages of the new method were good yields (61–93%), short reaction time (0.4–3 h), and inexpensive catalyst.
