title: Multistep, microwave assisted, solvent free synthesis and antibacterial activity of 6-substituted-2,3,4-trihydropyrimido[1,2-c]9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines.
abstract: A novel, efficient, microwave assisted route for the synthesis of 6-substituted-2,3,4-trihydropyrimido[1,2-c]-9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines in good yields has been developed. The intermediates, 2-substituted-4-[3-hydroxy(propyl-1-amino)]5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines were obtained by irradiating 2-substituted-4-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines with 1-amino-propanol under basic conditions in a microwave oven. 4-Chlorothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines were synthesized by microwave irradiation of equimolar mixture of 4-hydroxythieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines and phosphorus oxychloride. The final compounds were screened for antibacterial activity by Kirby Bauer's method using amicacin as the standard against various gram positive and gram negative bacteria. All the compounds showed antibacterial activity comparable with the standard.
