摘要
In the present study, the density functional theory (DFT) and Gibbs free energy calculations were performed to investigate the stability and tautomerism of C4-substituted-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones. Three different forms are possible for the ethyl 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones (ethyl 4-aryl-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one-5-carboxylates, ethyl 4-aryl-2-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,4-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylates and ethyl 4-aryl-2-hydroxy-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylates) forms that the most stable form is ethyl 4-aryl-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2 (1H)-one-5-carboxylates (keto-form). The obtained data showed that the substitution on the C4-substitut position can be effective on the equilibrium constant (K eq).
