Abstract
Sodium salt of 3-hydroxy-1-(1-aryl-5-methylpyrazolyl)propenone derivatives was used as a precursor for synthesis of various fused azolopyrimidine ring systems as pyrazolopyrimidines, triazolopyrimidines, and pyrimidobenzimidazoles following many procedures. The identity of the prepared compounds was elucidated by their spectral data and elemental analyses. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of 13 new compounds was evaluated, and many derivatives showed good to moderate activity.
