Aldehydes, β-ketoesters and urea are cyclocondensed in the presence of hydrazine sulfate to produce dihydropyrimidines in ethanol under reflux conditions. The advantages of using hydrazine sulfate as a catalyst over the traditional Biginelli reaction conditions include outstanding yields (80–91%) and a shorter (10–15 hours) reaction time.
