Abstract

An efficient method for the Biginelli reaction of aldehydes, acetoacetate esters and urea employing tetraethyl orthosilicate in the presence of ferric chloride allows the preparation of a wide variety of substituted dihydropyrimidinones in high yields and purity under mild reaction conditions.
