Abstract

An efficient synthesis of novel 2,3-dihydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones has been reported. Inexpensive and readily available substrates, environmentally benign reaction condition, and product formation up to quantitative yield are the key features of this methodology. Products are formed by the aza-Michael addition followed by intramolecular acyl substitution in a domino process. The polar nature and strong hydrogen bond donor capability of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropan-2-ol is pivotal in this cascade protocol.

Highlights

  • The 1,3-nitrogenous bicyclic frameworks have been illustrious in drug discovery

  • From literature survey it was apparent that there are no reports on the dihydropyrido-pyrimidinones chemistry and their biological activity

  • Engage in small molecule research, we wanted to explore the synthesis of dihydropyrido-pyrimidinones and their biological activities

Summary

Introduction

Many pyrido-pyrimidinone scaffolds (i.e., Fig. 1) have occupied privileged position in medicinal chemistry due to their unprecedented biological activities. It is a key constituent of numerous natural products possessing wide range of therapeutic properties including antitumor, anti-influenza, oxidative burst inhibition, lipid droplet synthesis inhibition, and anti-obesity properties[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]. Zeng et al have utilized palladium catalyzed C-H activation entailed carbonylative cycloamidation of ketoimines (Fig. 3, Case A)[17]. We present our results involving sustainable design and catalyst free synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a] pyrimidin-4-one derivatives
