Abstract

The synthesis of N,N-dimethyl arylpyranopyrimidinedione derivatives from aromatic aldehydes, N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethamine (NMSM) and 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid, in the presence of piperidine as a catalyst, is reported. The reaction mechanism involves a Knoevenagel condensation, followed by Michael addition and intramolecular O-cyclization reaction sequence. The synthesized compounds were docked with human kinesin Eg5 protein to calculate binding energy, inhibition constant and H-bond interaction. All the compounds show good binding affinity towards the protein, with significant docking score.
