Synthesis of Some Benzofuran Derivatives Containing Pyrimidine Moiety as Potent Antimicrobial Agents.

In this investigation, the synthesis of 2-substituted pyrimidines by the reaction of benzofuran chalcones (3a-d) with urea, thiourea and guanidine hydrochloride was reported. The structures of title compounds (4a-d), (5a-d) and (6a-d) were established on the basis of analytical and spectral data. The synthesized compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity and molecular docking studies.
