Synthesis of 5-aryl-1,3-dimethyl-6-(alkyl- or aryl-amino) furo [2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives by reaction between isocyanides and pyridinecarbaldehydes in the presence of 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid.

ABSTRACT

5-Aryl-6-(alkyl- or aryl-amino)-1,3-dimethylfuro [2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were obtained by in situ reaction alkyl or aryl isocyanides and pyridinecarbaldehyde derivatives in the presence of 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid in dichloromethane without any prior activation or modifications.
