title: Synthesis and antileishmanial profile of some novel terpenyl pyrimidines.
abstract: Some novel terpenyl pyrimidine derivatives 2(a-d) and 6(a-b) have been synthesised from alpha/beta-ionone keteneacetals 1 and 5. The terpenyl pyrimidine 2e has been synthesised from beta-ionone 3 in two steps in quantitative yield. The pyrimidine derivatives were screened for in-vivo antilesihmanial activity. The compounds 2d, 2e, 6a and 6b showed promising in-vivo antileishmanial activity.
