Also, the reaction of benzoylacetone with a mixture of urea or thiourea and aromatic aldehydes afforded pyrimidine derivatives 2a-h. Pyridinethione derivative 3 was reacted with ¦Á¨Chaloketones and ¦Á¨Chalonitriles 4a-e to afford the S-alky- lated derivatives 5a-e which cyclized into 6b-e and 7. Reactions of compound 7 with glacial acetic acid/acetic anhydride gave 8 which led to 9a and 9b on treatment with ammonium acetate/acetic acid and aniline. Also, treatment of 7 with formamide, hydrazine hydrate and benzoyl isothiocyanate afforded 10, 11 and 13. Reactions of 3 with arylidenemalononitrile 14 in ethanolic triethylamine yielded 1:1 addact 17a-c. %K Pyridines %K Pyrimidines %K Pyridinthione %K Pyridothienopyrimidine and Isoquinolines %U http://www.oalib.com/paper/3134366
