There has been special interest in the chemistry of quinolone and pyrimidine derivatives due to their diverse biological activities such as anticonvulsant, anti-malarial agents, antibacterial, antiviral, cytostatic, antithelemintic, antigenotoxic, anti-cancer agents. These compounds are also used as targeting delayed-type hypersensivity and anti-convulsant agents. As a part of our research works in the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives containing biological activities, a series of novel pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives 2 and tetrahydro quinolone dione derivatives 3 were synthesized via reaction of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrano derivatives 1 with different reagents in suitable yields. The characterization of these synthesized compounds was established by IR, (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR spectroscopic data. Furthermore, all compounds were subsequently evaluated for their in-vitro antibacterial activity against three bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus (ATTC-25923), Escherichia Coli (ATTC-25922) and Bacillus anthracic (ATTC-25924).
