PTSA-Catalyzed One Pot Domino Synthesis of Dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine Derivatives and their Antimicrobial Activity

A novel series of dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized by multicomponent domino cyclization via the one-pot three component reaction of 6-amino uracil, substituted aryl aldehydes and N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethenamine in the presence of PTSA 10 mol% as a catalyst. The structures of these synthesized compounds were characterized by spectral analysis. Further the synthesized compounds screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity. Among all the compounds, compound 4b containing flouro substitution exhibited good inhibition against the tested species.
