Expeditious synthesis of 5,6,7 ,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,2-a ] pyrimidin-2-ones and 3,4,6,7 ,8,9-hexahydro-pyrimido[,2-a ] pyrimidin-2-ones

A convenient synthesis of new 5,6,7 ,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[ 1,2-a]pyrimidin-2-ones and 3,4,6,7 ,8,9-hexahydro-pyrimido[1 ,2a]pyrimidin-2- ones from the Baylis-Hillman adducts of acrylonitrile and their derivatives is described. A common strategy employed to achieve the syntheses of title compounds involved generation of diamines from different Baylis-Hillman derivatives followed by treatment with cyanogen bromide at reflux temperature to trigger a double intramolecular cyclization.

Sodium hydride-mediated cascade reaction towards the synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted uracil from cyanamides derived from the Baylis-Hillman ad-ducts
