Silica-bonded N-propyl sulfamic acid as an efficient recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones/thiones under heterogeneous conditions

Silica-bonded N-propyl sulfamic acid (SBNPSA) catalyzed one-pot three component Biginelli condensation of different substituted aromatic aldehydes with ethyl acetoacetate and urea/thoiurea to the respective 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones and thiones in environment friendly procedure is described. The facile reaction conditions, simple isolation and purification procedures of this method make it a good option for the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinones.
