Multicomponent cyclocondensation of Meldrum's acid, 2-chlorobenzaldehyde, and N-(4-bromophenyl)-3-amino-3-thioxopropanamide in the presence of N-methylmorpholine afforded N-methylmorpholinium 3-[N-(4-bromophenyl)carbamoyl]-4-(2-chlorophenyl)-6-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-2-thiolate in 65% yield.
