Thieno[2,3-<i>d</i>]pyrimidin-4(3<i>H</i>)-ones are important pharmacophores that previously required a three step synthesis with two chromatography steps. We herein report a green approach to the synthesis of this pharmacologically important class of compounds via a catalytic four-component reaction using a ketone, ethyl cyanoacetate, S<sub>8</sub> and formamide. The reported reaction is characterized by step economy, reduced catalyst loading and easy purification. ...[more]
