Polysubstituted 3-arylaminoacrylate and tetrahydropyrimidin-2-one derivatives could be selectively produced from the one-pot domino reaction of arylamines, methyl propiolate, aromatic aldehydes, and urea in ethanol in the presence of FeCl3 as catalyst. Under similar reactions secondary amines such as morpholine and
