• Diels–Alder reactions involving 1-oxa-1,3-butadienes. Keywords: β-halo aldehydes; hetero Diels–Alder reaction; 1-oxa-1,3-butadiene; pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines; uracil; Introduction The importance of uracil and its annulated derivatives is well recognized by synthetic as well as biological chemists [1][2

• reactions involving 1-oxa-1,3-butadiene. This reaction, which can also be investigated for the synthesis of many other heyterocyclic compounds of biological importance, is a valuable addition to the chemistry of uracils.
