Samarium Chloride Catalysed Biginelli Reaction: One-Pot synthesis of 3,4-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-Ones

Abstract
An efficient synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one derivatives using samarium chloride as a catalyst from aldehyde, β-keto ester and urea or thiourea in ethanol is described; compared to the classical Biginelli method, this new method has the advantages of good yields and milder reaction conditions.
