One-pot synthesis of thieno [2,3-d] pyrimidin-4-ol derivatives mediated by polyphosphonic anhydride

Abstract

An efficient synthesis of thiopyrimidines with different substituents in position 2 is described. A rapid, mild and high yielding microwave-assisted one-pot cyclization of 5-substituted 2-amino thiophene-3-carboxamide derived from Gewald reaction1 with T3P and different acids gives the corresponding thiopyrimidines. The significant feature of this method includes less reaction time, high purity and reduced toxicity of the reaction.
