One-pot synthesis of dihydropyrimidones using nano silica as an efficient and reusable catalyst Improved protocol conditions for the Biginelli reaction

An efficient synthesis of 3,4 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones or thiones (DHPMs) is described, using nano silica SiO2 for the first time as the catalyst from an aldehyde β-keto ester and urea or thiourea in acetonitrile. Compared to the classical Biginelli reaction conditions, this method consistently has the advantage of excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, ease of workup, survival of different functional groups, and short reaction times.
