The Iodine/DMSO system allows the selective C<span></span>I and C<span></span>O bond formation, substantially useful for converting them to other bond forming reactions and heterocycles useful in the synthetic and medicinal chemistry.

Bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoans have been exhibiting resistance against antimicrobial drugs making them ineffective.

In this study, 10 new chromone-incorporated fused thiazolo[2,3-<i>b</i>]quinazolinone derivatives, <b>8a-j</b>, have been prepared via Biginelli reaction involving aromatic aldehydes, 1-tetralone, and thiourea followed by a reaction with 2-chloro-<i>N</i>-phenylacetamide, and Knoevenagel condensation with 3-formylchromone. All the structures of the compounds were characterized by NMR, FTIR, and mass spectrometry. The in vitro antibacterial activities of all the synthesized compounds against the four different microbial strains were evaluated. Among them, few compounds demonstrated prominent activity against <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i>, and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>.
