A novel and facile Biginelli-like assembly employing enaminones, aldehydes and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole has been developed, which provides a novel synthesis of new 5-unsubstituted-6-aroyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives.
Keywords: 3-amino-1, 2, 4-triazole, enamines, Biginelli-like, 6-Aroyl-[1, 2, 4]triazolo[1, 5-a]pyrimidine, pyrimidine-2-thione, 4-aryl-7-thioxo- 3, 4, 7, 8-tetrahydropyrimido[4, 5-d]pyrimidine-2, 5(1H, 6H)-dione.
