A highly regio- and chemoselective addition of carbon nucleophiles to pyrimidinones. A new route to C4 elaborated Biginelli compounds

Ethyl 6-methyl-pyrimidine-2-one-5-carboxylates react with C-nucleophiles in a diversity oriented synthetic sequence to afford C4 substituted congeners of medicinally potent Biginelli dihydropyrimidinones, in a highly regioselective manner.
