The first mechanism for the synthesis of dihydropyrimidinone was conducted by Folkers and Johnson .
, who based their deduction on the reaction Bimolecular condensation of benzaldehyde and urea was suggested as an intermediate in the reaction In 1973, a second mechanistic proposal was suggested by Sweet and Fissekis .
, which involved an aldol condensation between benzaldehyde and ethyl acetoacetate to form a stabilized carbonium ion as a primary step.
Kappe et al.
reinvestigated the mechanism using 1H and 13C-NMR spectroscopy.
established that the acid-catalyzed condensation between Mohammed Abed Kadhim et al.
aldehyde and urea generated iminium ion 1.
Interception of this iminium ion by ethyl acetoacetate, possibly through its enol tautomer, produces an open chain ureide 2, which subsequently cyclizes to dihydropyrimidine DHPMs 3 by the removal of H2O (Scheme .
Biginelli protocol had a problem with low to moderate yields, mainly when substituted aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes are hired.
As a result of various adverse effects, further severe conditions and long reaction times have occurred .

decreases its ABTS to a certain level over time, depending on the antioxidant activity, the concentration of the antioxidant, and reaction durations.
Thus, the amount of decolorization is assessed as a percentage inhibition of the ABTSA radical cation, and as a function of concentration and duration, then it is computed relative to the reactivity of ascorbic acid as a standard, under the same circumstances .

THQ has a phenyl ring condensed with pyrimidin4-one nucleus (Scheme .
Most of the THQ derivatives are substituted on the carbon 4 chiral center.
Therefore, the present article is aimed to apply mechano-chemical MCR via grinding for the synthesis of such heterocycles.
MCR

In addition, facile automation, simplicity, higher product yields and minimal waste generation reduce the cost, time, and energy .
Because of this, a greater YE suggests a higher degree of conversion, a chemical process that is considerably more effective, and the most cost-effective reaction, as previously said in Table 2.

In the presence of KOH, the HOMO energy (Oe9.

62 eV) of the electrophilic carbonyl site of benzaldehyde to form the corresponding chalcone via aldol reaction followed by nucleophilic addition of urea precursor (Fig.

While employing thiourea (Fig.

96 eV) rather than HOMO of cyclohexanone anion (Oe9.
60 eV).
The presence of benzylidene thiourea intermediate is created by KOH using the technique in Scheme 2.
DFT simulation was assisted to know that MCRs do not occur simultaneously, meaning two components reacted first and combined with a third.
The structures have been supported by full spectral analysis and microanalytical data.

Outline the reaction steps of the thiourea cyclohexanone and 3-nitrobenzaldehyde On the other hand, the HOMO energy (Oe10.
0 eV) of phenyl urea was in a good overlap with the LUMO energy of benzaldehyde moiety in the absence of KOH because cyclohexanone has HOMO (Oe11.
50 eV) and LUMO (Oe1.
55 eV) besides, the lower basicity of phenyl urea is not sufficient to afford active methylene of cyclohexanone The authentic reaction of the (Z)-1-.
-3-phenylurea (HOMO Oe8.

55 eV) of cyclohexanone afforded the same product 5a.
The presence of KOH in the latter reaction will occur in the same mechanism as Scheme 1 because the HOMO of cyclohexanone anion become higher than the HOMO of phenyl urea.
Electron-withdrawing groups of the aromatic aldehydes play an important role in aromatization, orientation and isomerization of the THQ products, see Fig 5.

All synthetic compounds' complete structural elucidations were based on spectroscopic and elemental investigations, including FTIR, mass, and 1H-NMR.
All products underwent insecticidal assessments.
When using the ABTS test to evaluate the antioxidant perspective, compounds 2a, 2b, 4a, and 4b in particular, have shown much stronger inhibition than the other examined By using these new molecules, antioxidants are able to recognize and scavenge free radicals in vivo as well as in vitro.
They will be promising as a therapeutic candidate for avoiding the onset and spread of several Mohammed Abed Kadhim et al.
This will pave the way for the synthesis of hydrophobicity and antioxidant activity in the near future through employing pyrimidine derivatives.
The outcomes of DFT-based anti-hemolytic and radical scavenger experimental testing confirmed the considerable antioxidant activity of such substances.
Compounds 1b, 2a, 2b, 3b, 4a, 4b, and 4c were shown to have significant anti-hemolytic activity.
