Preparation with Biological Study for Pyrimidine Derivatives from Chalcone
Pyrimidine has been mentioned to present diverse biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tubercular, anti-bacterial, in additional to another biological activities, therefore, many medicine containing pyrimidine moiety have been observed. Due to the pharmacological importance of pyrimidine derivatives, the present work coms as attempt to synthesis of various pyrimidine derivatives by series of steps starting from chalcone, compounds (1 and 2) which were prepared by CliesenSchemidt condensation of acetophenone with (4-bromobenzaldehyde or 4-chlorobenzaldehyde). Then cyclization of compounds (1 or 2) with urea or thiourea to produce compounds (3 or 4 respectively). by another way, compound (1) was cyclized with thiourea to produce 4,5-Dihydropyrimidine-2(3H)-thione compound (5) which could be reacted with 3-cyanobenzyl chloride or benzyl chloride to give 2-Arylalkylthio-2,5-dihydropyrimidine derivatives compounds (6 or 7, respectively). These target compounds were confirmed on the basis FT-IR, and 1 H-NMR techniques. The biological study was evaluated against tow bacterial (Staphylococcus aureus as gram positive) and (Klebsiella pneumonia as gram negative) in concentration (50 and 100) μg/mL. It was found that derivatives have biological activity against growth these bacterial.
