A number of derivatives of 6-methylmercaptopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-3-ylacetic acid and their 1-ribosides were synthesized. The 4-methylmercapto group was replaced by amino, hydrazino, oxo, N-piperidino, and N-morpholino groups. The nitrile group was saponified in an alkaline medium to carbamoyl and carboxy groups. The corresponding 4-morpholino and 4-piperidino derivatives were obtained by the reaction of 3-cyano-4,6-dimethylmercaptopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine per-O-acetylated 1--D-ribofuranoside with secondary cyclic amines. The high resistance of the 6-methylmercapto group to the action of nucleophilic agents and the higher reactivity of the 4-methylmercapto group as compared with the nitrile group are discussed.
