Efficient and green synthesis of novel hexahydro-5H-thiazolo[2',3':2,3]pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives.

Abstract

Herein, we report a catalyst-free, one-pot three-component reaction of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-7H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-one, aromatic aldehyde, and dimedone in ethylene glycol as a green solvent at 100 °C for the easy access of hexahydro-5H-thiazolo[2',3':2,3]pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline. Catalyst-free, green solvent, simple procedure, mild reaction conditions, easy work-up procedure, and good to excellent yields are the significant advantages of this protocol.
