pubmed-article:1830467 | pubmed:abstractText | A series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-methyl-4-(substituted phenyl)-2-thioxo-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid methyl esters were synthesized by condensing thiourea with methyl acetoacetate and nonsubstituted or differently substituted benzaldehydes in absol. ethanol using HCl as a catalyst according to the Biginelli reaction. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by elemental and spectroscopic analysis. -The compounds were evaluated for their calcium antagonistic activity on the basis of their potency in inhibiting [3H] PN 200-110 binding on microsomes obtained from rat skeletal muscle. | lld:pubmed |
