Synthesis of Some Novel Thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidine and Pyrimido[2,1‐b][1,3]thiazine Derivatives and their Antimicrobial Evaluation

A 2‐(2‐Mercapto‐4‐(4‐phenoxyphenyl)‐6‐(thiophen‐2‐yl)‐1,6‐dihydropyrimidin‐5‐yl) acetic acid was used as a reactive key precursor to design various pyrimidine derivatives such as thiazolo3,2‐a]pyrimidines and pyrimido2,1‐b]1,3]thiazines. The chemical structures of the newly synthesized products were confirmed by their elemental analyses and spectral data (IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and mass spectra). The antibacterial and antifungal activities of some of the synthesized products were also evaluated, and it was found that compounds 3, 5, 9 , and 11 exhibited potent activity against tested microorganisms in comparison with standard drugs.
