Synthesis of pyrazolo[3,4-d]-4,5-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones

A small library of hitherto unprepared pyrazolo[3,4-d]-4,5-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones was synthesized on a preparative scale. The synthesis starts with a substituted 5-aminopyrazole that reacts with an isocyanate to give the corresponding urea. The latter undergoes a chlorotrimethylsilane-promoted [5+1] cyclocondensation with an aldehyde yielding the title pyrazolo[3,4-d]-4,5-dihydropyrimidin-6-one. Both synthetic steps are high-yielding (74–94%). The intermediates and the target compounds were isolated by simple crystallization. Ketones with the exception of isatin do not react with the open-chain urea intermediates.

Hydrazino as well as imino-amino derivatives undergo condensation, cyclization, and cycloaddition reactions to give pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine 18 - 21 , pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo-[3,4-c]pyrimidine 22 - 27 , and pyrazolo[3′,4′:4,5]pyrimido[1,6-b][1,2,4]triazine 42 - 44 derivatives. Antimicrobial studies are performed using two Gram-positive bacteria and two Gram-negative bacteria. Data indicated that compounds 5 , 28D , 29B , and 31D are exploring elevated antibacterial effects against all strains tested. Compound 28D is the most promising antibacterial agent against the delicate bacterial strain Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa with high effectiveness (low minimum inhibitory concentration [MIC] value) 40 and 60 μg/mL, respectively.
