ABSTRACT A number of aldehydes were reacted with acetyl acetone or ethyl acetoacetate and urea under Biginelli reaction conditions to give the corresponding 5-acyl-4-(substituted-aryl)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-one. The 5-acetyl-derivatives were converted into pyrimido-oxazoles, pyrimido-pyrazoles, and chalcones. Some Mannich bases were also synthesized. Some selected compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activitites

INTRODUCTION: The presence of pyrimidine ring in nucleic acid, uric acid, several vitamins, some purines, and their importance in many biological processes may explain the biological significance of such molecule in the drugs containing them. Examples of synthetic drugs containing this group include. Sulfadiazines 1 and fluorouracil 2 as antimicrobials, alloxan 3 for its diabetogenic action, trimethoprim 4 as antibacterial and others.
Other interesting pyrimidine containing compounds are those derived from dihdropyrimidinones (the so called Biginelli compounds) 5 which draw the attention of many synthetic workers in the last few decades. These compounds even those having small molecules, are known by their antihypertensive properties 6 in addition to their diverse range of biological activities such as antiviral 7, antimicrobial 8, antitumor 9, anti-inflammatory 10 and especially as antifungal activities 11.
The most familiar examples of Biginelli compounds are those obtained by condensation of a β- keto- ester with urea (or thiourea) and an aldehyde. On this basis, several dihydropyrimidinones have been synthesized by using the art of combinatorial chemistry 6-11. Using acetyl acetone or its derivatives in this reaction has not taken the same attention as for the use of β-keto-esters, in spite the fact that the acetyl group in position-5 is chemically reactive and thus giving an access to new derivatives, while that of the ester group in the same position has been proven in most cases not reactive.
In this work we report the synthesis and antimicrobial activity of some new dihydropyrimidinones of the Biginelli type, using mainly acetyl acetone with urea and an aldehyde followed by using the acetyl group in building other derivatives. Derivatives such as chalcones, oxazoles and pyrazoles constitute a major subgroup of naturally occurring compounds of pharmaceutical interest, e.g., chalcone synthase (CHS) catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of flavonoids and anthocyanin pigments. Anthocyanins play roles as pigments of flowers and fruits to attract insects for pollination and act as protectants against UV-B irradiation. They also exhibit anti-oxidant activities and therefore may serve as potential anticancer compounds 16.
Chemistry: The aldehydes used in this work include 5-methyfurfural, 4-hydroxy- and 4-methoxy benzaldehyde and 3-methyl benzaldehyde. The reaction was carried out by refluxing a mixture of the given aldehyde, acetyl acetone and urea in ethanol as solvent with few milliliters of acetic acid (conventional Biginelli method) by which the dihydropyrimidinones 1-4 were obtained. .
Reaction of any of the compounds 1-4 with 5-methyl-furfural gave the corresponding chalcones, 1-[6-methyl-4-(5-methyl-furan-2-yl)-2-oxo-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-yl]- 3- (5- methyl- furan- 2-yl)-prop-2-en-1-one (5) 1- [6- methyl- 4- (4- hydroxy-phenyl)-2-oxo-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-yl]- 3- (5- methyl- furan- 2- yl)- prop- 2- en- 1- one (6), 1-[6- methyl- 4- (4- methoxy- phenyl)- 2- oxo- 1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-yl]-3-(5-methyl-furan-2-yl)-prop-2-en-1-one (7) and 1-[6-methyl-4-(3-methyl-phenyl)-2-oxo-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-yl]-3-(5- methyl- furan- 2- yl)- prop- 2- en- 1- one (8), respectively.
Reaction of the chalcone 6 with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol gave the corresponding 4- (4- hydroxy-phenyl)- 6- methyl- 5- [5- (5- methyl- furan- 2- yl)- 1H- pyrazol- 3- yl]- 3, 4- dihydro- 1H- pyrimidin- 2- one (9), while with hydrazine hydrate in acetic acid gave the N-acetyl derivative (10).
Reaction of each of the compounds 1,3 and 4 with hydroxyl amine hydrochloride in the presence of sodium acetate gave the corresponding 3,7a-dimethyl-4-(aryl)-4,5,7,7a-tetrahydro-3aH-isoxazolo-[5, 4-d]-pyrimidin-6-one (11-13) via intramolecular cyclization. Hydrazine hydrate behaved similarly upon its reaction with 1 and 3 and gave the corresponding 3, 7a- dimethyl-4- (aryl) - 1, 3a, 4, 5, 7, 7a- hexahydro-pyrazolo-[3, 4- d]- pyrimidin- 6- one (14 and 15).
Cyclization was formed by a Michael-type addition of the oxime (or hydrazone) proton to C5 with linking of the oxygen (or nitrogen) atom to C6 of the pyrimidine ring; both types of reactions have been described in one of our previous publications 12.
Reaction of hydroxyl amine with compound 2 gave a mixture of hardly separable products, Compounds 2 and 4 reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give the corresponding hydrazones, 5-(1-hydrazonoethyl)-4-(4-aryl)-6-methyl-3, 4-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-2-ones (16 and 17), respectively without cyclization, the reason is not clear and needs further study..
Because the Mannich 13 bases play some role in the biological activity of compounds containing them, it was of interest to prepare some of their pyrimidinone derivatives. Thus, reaction of ethyl acetoacetate with urea and 4-hydroxy-benzaldehyde gave the corresponding ester 18, which was subjected to react with formaldehyde and some secondary amines mainly, piperidine, morpholine and methyl piperazine to give the Mannich bases 4- (4- hydroxy- 3- N-substituted-methyl-phenyl)- 6- methyl- 2- oxo- 1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (19-21).
Antimicrobial activity: The antimicrobial activity of twelve representative examples from the synthesized compounds was examined. Antibacterial activity was carried out against Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus (gram positive bacteria), and two of gram negative bacteria, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginose in addition to the fungus Candida albicans. The obtained results were compared with reference antibiotics

The solvent was then evaporated under vacuum and the residue obtained was treated with water, filtered then washed with water, dried and crystallized from methanol to give compounds (19-21)

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activities of the Synthesized Compounds:
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Measuring of antimicrobial activities was carried out by using the plate method 21-24. A filter paper sterilized disc saturated with (1ml, mg/ml) of the sample is placed on a plate (9cm diameter) containing a solid bacterial medium (nutrient agar broth) or a fungal medium (Dox’s medium) which has been seeded with the spore suspension of the test organism. After incubation at 37oC for 24 h for bacteria and at 25oC for 72 h in case of fungi, the diameter of the clear zone of inhibition surrounding the sample is taken as a measure of the inhibitory power of the sample against the particular test organism;
(% inhibition = sample inhibition zone (cm)/plate diameter × 100).
All measurements were done in chloroform as a solvent which has zero inhibition activity. The antimicrobial activity of the tested compounds were examined with gram positive bacteria, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus and gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginose and the fungus Candida albicans. The obtained results are compared with a reference antibiotics that were purchased from Egyptian markets.
RESULTS: As seen from the table 1, the tested compounds showed variable antimicrobial activities which range from non to moderate. With respect to this class of compounds, it is characterized by their antifungal activity towards the pathogen, Candida albicans, yet compounds No. 5, 6 (examples of chalcones) 15, and 21 showed the highest clear zone reaching 14 and 15 mm, which has a valuable medical trend.
