The Biginelli product dihydropyrimidinones (DHPMs) and its derivatives have enormous biological significance. This article described the exploration of 2-chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide (CMPI) reagent for the development of an environmentally safe, solvent-free protocol to construct the functionalized 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones/thiones. The protocol involves the three-component condensation reaction of β-keto ester, aldehyde, and urea or thiourea at elevated temperature. The key advantages of the protocol are its capacity to provide both environmental and economic benefits owing to its solvent-free conditions, short reaction times, simple workup, and good to excellent isolated yield of DHPMs.
