• 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

• dihydropyrans [36][37][38]. Heterocyclic β-halo aldehydes are very interesting compounds which can be transformed in a number of ways to fused heterocycles [39][40] by using the reactivity of halide for nucleophilic substitution in combination with a multitude of transformation possibilities from the aldehyde
