Synthesis of new substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidines and pyrazolo[1,5-a]1,3,5-triazines

5-Substituted 3-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles 2a-d react with appropriate biselectrophilic reagents in the presence of (TEA) to give the substitution products pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 4a-d, 6a-d and pyrazolo[1,5-a ]1,3,5-triazines 8a-d. Compounds 6a and 8a react with secondary amines to 10a-c and 11a-c. Treatment of 2a with malonodinitrile results in the substituted pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine 16. Condensation of 2a, 2c and 2d with ethyli-dene-malodintriles leads to racemic dihydro-pyrazolo[1,5-a] pyr-imidines 18a-e. Reaction of diene 20 with the heterodienophile 21 leads to formation of Diels-Alder adduct 22.     

Synthesis and electrophilic substitutions of novel pyrazolo[1,5-c]-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines

5-Aryl-7-hydrazino-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines 1 were used as precursors for the preparation of a new series of 5-aryl-8-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-c]-1,2,4- triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines 2. The reactions of 2 with certain electrophilic reagents gave the respective 6-substituted derivatives 3-5 rather than the 7-isomeric products. Formylation of the key compounds 1 with ethyl formate yielded the formyl derivatives 6. Furthermore, boiling of compounds 1 with acetic acid afforded 7-acetylhydrazino-5-aryl-2-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines 7. Bromination of 7 yielded the dibromo- derivatives 8, while their iodination and nitration gave the monosubstituted derivatives 9 and 10, respectively. Also, treatment of 1 with boiling acetic anhydride yielded the triacetyl derivatives 11. The structure of synthesized products was confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, 1H NMR and MS spectra.     

Liquid-phase synthesis of combinatorial libraries based on 7-trifluoromethyl-substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine scaffold

The parallel solution-phase synthesis of more than 2200 7-trifluoromethyl-substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and 4,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine carboxamides on a 50-100-mg scale has been accomplished. Key reactions include assembly of the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine ring by condensation of 5-aminopyrazole derivatives with the corresponding trifluoromethyl-beta-diketones. The libraries from libraries were then obtained in good yields and purities using solution-phase acylation and reduction methodologies. Simple manual techniques for parallel reactions using special CombiSyn synthesizers were coupled with easy purification procedures (crystallization from the reaction mixtures) to give high-purity final products. The scope and limitations of the developed approach are discussed.

The structures of the derived target compounds were confirmed by their IR and ^1H-NMR spectroscopic data. The preliminary pharmacological evaluations indicated that some compounds showed hypnotic activity, whilc derivative 1c was the most potent one.

18F-labeled pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives: synthesis from 2,4-dinitrobenzamide and tosylate precursors and comparative biological evaluation for tumor imaging with positron emission tomography

We previously reported 18F-labeled pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives: 7-(2-[18F]fluoroethylamino)-5-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile ([18F]1) and N-(2-(3-cyano-5-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-ylamino)ethyl)-2-[18F]fluoro-4-nitro- benzamide ([18F]2). Preliminary biodistribution experiments of both compounds showed s slow clearance rate from excretory tissues which warranted further investigation for tumor imaging with PET. Here we modified [18F]1 and [18F]2 by introducing polar groups such as ester, hydroxyl and carboxyl and developed three additional 18F-18 labeled pyrazolo[1,5-a] pyrimidine derivatives: (3-Cyano-7-(2-[18F]fluoroethylamino)pyrazolo[1,5-a]-pyrimidin-5- yl)methyl acetate ([18F]3), 7-(2-[18F]fluoroethylamino)-5-(hydroxymethyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]- pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile ([18F]4) and (S)-6-(3-cyano-5-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-ylamino)-2-(2-[18F]fluoro-4-nitrobenzamido)hexanoic acid ([18F]5). The radiolabeled probes were synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding tosylate and nitro precursors with 18F-fluoride. In Vitro studies showed higher uptake of [18F]3 and [18F]4 than that of [18F]5 by S180 tumor cells. In Vivo biodistribution studies in mice bearing S180 tumors showed that the uptake of both [18F]3 and [18F]4 in tumors displayed an increasing trend while the uptake of [18F]5 in tumor decreased through the course of the 120 min study. This significant difference in tumor uptake was also found between [18F]1 and [18F]2. Thus, we compared the biological behavior of the five tracers and reported the tumor uptake kinetic differences between 2-[18F]fluoroethylamino- and 2-[18F]fluoro-4-nitro- benzamidopyrazolo[1,5-a] pyrimidine derivatives.
