Abstract

Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones/thiones (DHPMs) are important heterocyclic compounds owing to their excellent biological activities and have been widely utilized in pharmaceutical applications. Recently, numerous DHPM derivatives have been prepared. This review covers the synthesis of DHPMs and improved procedures for the preparation of DHPMs from 1995 to 2016.

Keywords: DHPMs; Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones; Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones/thiones; MCRs; Multicomponent reaction; Three-component reaction.
