Synthesis, tautomeric structure and antimicrobial activity of 3-arylhydrazono-4-phenyl-[1,2,4]-triazepino[2,3-a]quinazoline-2,7(1H)-diones

A simple strategy for the synthesis of the hitherto unreported 3-arylazo-4-phenyl-[1,2,4]triazepino[2,3-H]quinazoline-2,7(1H)-diones is described. Spectral data indicated that the studied compounds exist predominantly in the hydrazone tautomeric form. The antimicrobial activity of the newly synthesized compounds was also evaluated. The results indicated that some of these compounds have moderate activity towards bacteria.

A new and facile synthetic approach to substituted 2-thioxoquinazolin-4-ones by the annulation of a pyrimidine derivative

A new and facile synthesis of 2-thioxoquinazolin-4-ones by introducing a benzenoid system in the pyrimidine moiety by reacting ethoxymethylene derivatives of 1,3-diarylthiobarbituric acids (DTBA) with active methylene compounds, such as malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate, in presence of ZnCl₂ has been developed.
