Physicians provide millions of patients with essential medical care each year on which a dollar value cannot be placed. However, the economic role physicians play in healthcare delivery can be calibrated. According to a new Merritt Hawkins survey indicating net annual revenue generated by physicians for their affiliated hospitals, and according to data indicating the economic contributions physicians make to their communities, this role remains highly significant. Even as payment models transition from volume-based metrics to value-based metrics, the economic role of physicians in healthcare will remain pivotal.

C1 chemistry has a central role in the efficient utilization of single-carbon molecules, contributing significantly to sustainability, innovation and economic growth across various sectors. In this study, we present an efficient and rapid method for synthesizing a variety of heteroannulated pyrimidones using cyanoacetamide-based multicomponent reaction (MCR) chemistry. By utilizing specific MCR-based scaffolds as precursors and employing the abundant and inexpensive formamide as a C1 feedstock under neat conditions, we were able to efficiently access substituted thieno-, quinolino- and indolopyrimidones without the need of column chromatography.
