you may have killed them during transplant, best to drop them in soil and just let them go.
wait another week (doing the same thing) and if they dont come up you should try again

When transferring germinated seeds to soil, it's very important to plant them in a way that the tip of the root points downwards. Not too deep, not too shallow.
How did you germinate them exactly?

Unless you have old seeds... Or bad genetics. Go directly to soil with no fuss. Maybe a light magnesium (kelp) pre-wash.

But "good" soil is not necessarily new soil. In fact low nutrient soil will encourage deep and wide root growth. I like using well used soil for my seedlings, or plant them directly around a mature plant in flower and wait until four true leaves are present...
Scooping out the seedling with some of the other plants roots and medium is then planted in a new rooting pot with low nutrient soil. I grow these to teens, about 8 inches, which leaves me with a well rooted sturdy plant ready for final large growing pot and rich pH balanced soil.

But you were also possibly "burning by window sill" or at least stressing them a bit.
