Halogenated 7-deazapurine nucleosides: stereoselective synthesis and conformation of 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-beta-D-arabinonucleosides

The stereoselective syntheses of 5-halogenated 7-(2-deoxy-2-fluoro-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine nucleosides 3b-d, 4a-c as well as 7-deaza-2'-deoxyisoguanosine are described. Nucleobase anion glycosylation of 2-amino-4-chloro-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (5) with 3,5-di-O-benzoyl-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-alpha-D-arabinofuranosyl bromide (6) exclusively gave the beta-D-anomer, which was deblocked (--> 8), aminated at C4 (--> 3a) and selectively deaminated at C2 to yield 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl 7-deazaisoguanine (2). Condensation of the 5-halogenated 4-chloro-2-pivaloylamino-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines 9a-c with 6 furnished the N7-nucleosides 10a-c together with N2,N7-bisglycosylated compounds 11a-c. The former was converted to the corresponding 2,4-diamino-compounds 3b-d, and the latter was deblocked by NaOMe/MeOH to yield the 4-methoxy-nucleosides 4a-c. Conformational analysis of the sugar moiety of the nucleosides 2 and 3a-d was performed on the basis of vicinal [1H,1H] coupling constants. The fluorine atom in the sugar moiety shifts the sugar conformation from S towards N by about 10%, while the halogen substituents in the base moiety increase the hydrophobicity and polarizability of the nucleobases.

Transformations of 5-methyl-6-carbethoxy-3,4-dihydrothieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidine for synthesis of 4-methoxy-, 4-alkylamino-, and other derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine

4-Chloro derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine are formed by the action of phosphorus oxychloride on 5-methyl- and 5-methyl-6-carbethoxythieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ones. Action of nucleophilic reagents (methanol, sodium methylate, primary and secondary amines) on these chloro derivatives gave 4-methoxy-, 4-alkylamino-, and 4-dialkylamino substituted thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines. It was found that 4-methoxy derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines undergo a thermal rearrangement into 3-methyl-substituted thieno[2,3-d]pyrimid-4-ones. In the bromination of 5-methyl-4-chloro- and 5-methyl-4-methoxy-substituted thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines by N-bromosuccinimide, 5-bromomethyl derivatives of thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine are formed, from which, by the action of primary and secondary amines, 5-aminomethyl-substituted thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines were obtained. A synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,3-diazepino[4a,10-d,e] thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines was also carried out.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsilicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 925–928, July, 1985.

4-Methyl-2-phenyl-5-(1-pyrryl)-6-substituted-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines ( 3a-c , 4a-c , 5a , b , and 6 ) have been synthesized. Some of the substituents in position 6 were used to build up different sulfur-, nitrogen- and/or oxygen-containing heterocyclic rings at that position. The 4-methyl-2-phenyl-5-(1-pyrryl)-thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboazide ( 20 ) was also used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of the target pyrrolo[1",2":1',6']pyrazino[2',3':4,5]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines.     

Multistep, microwave assisted, solvent free synthesis and antibacterial activity of 6-substituted-2,3,4-trihydropyrimido[1,2-c]9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines

A novel, efficient, microwave assisted route for the synthesis of 6-substituted-2,3,4-trihydropyrimido[1,2-c]-9,10,11,12-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[3,2-e]pyrimidines in good yields has been developed. The intermediates, 2-substituted-4-[3-hydroxy(propyl-1-amino)]5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines were obtained by irradiating 2-substituted-4-chloro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines with 1-amino-propanol under basic conditions in a microwave oven. 4-Chlorothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines were synthesized by microwave irradiation of equimolar mixture of 4-hydroxythieno[2,3-d]pyrimidines and phosphorus oxychloride. The final compounds were screened for antibacterial activity by Kirby Bauer's method using amicacin as the standard against various gram positive and gram negative bacteria. All the compounds showed antibacterial activity comparable with the standard.     

Synthesis and Properties of 6-Amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles

We have established that when 5-chloro-6-[cyano(2,3-dihydro-1-R-benzo[d]azol-2-yl)methyl]-2,3-pyrazinedicarbonitriles are reacted with nucleophilic reagents (aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydrogen sulfide), annelation of the five-membered ring occurs on the [b] face of the pyrazine with formation of 6-amino-7-hetaryl-5-R-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitriles and 6-amino-7-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)thieno[2,3-b]pyrazine-2,3-dicarbonitrile respectively. Further heating with excess of acylating reagent leads to formation of a novel heterocyclic system 1H-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]pyrazino[2',3':4,5]pyrrolo[3,2-e]pyrimidine. Reaction of vicinal dinitriles with hydrazine hydrate leads to the novel system 1H-pyrrolo[2',3':5,6]pyrazino[2,3-d]pyridazine.     

Efficient synthesis of highly functionalized dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines by a double annulation strategy from alpha-alkenoyl-alpha-carbamoyl ketene-(S,S)-acetals

A convenient and efficient synthesis of highly functionalized dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines via a double [5 + 1] annulation strategy starting from easily available alpha-alkenoyl-alpha-carbamoyl ketene-(S,S)-acetals 1 and cheap reagents (NH4OAc, DMF, and POCl3) has been developed. In the first step of the double annulation route, 2-amino-3-carbamoyl-5,6-dihydro-4-pyridones 2 were created in high to excellent yields by a formal [5C + 1N] annulation reaction of ketene-(S,S)-acetals 1 with ammonia (from ammonium acetate). In the second step of the double annulation strategy, the highly functionalized dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives, 7,8-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones 3 (when R1 = aryl) and 7,8-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines 4 (when R1 = H), were constructed, respectively, in fair to good yields by reacting 2 with excessive Vilsmeier reagent (DMF/POCl3). A mechanism involved in the second [5 + 1] annulation step, including a formal [5 + 1] annulation and accompanied chlorovinylation, chloroformylation, amination, and aromatization reactions, is proposed.     

Synthesis and properties of substituted 1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidines

The reaction of 2-arylamno-6-methylnicotinonitriles with acetic anhydride or benzoyl chloride gives N-acyl-2-arylamino-6-methylnicotinonitriles. Upon treatment with hydrogen chloride in anhydrous ethanol, these products are converted to 2-substituted 1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-7-methyl-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines. Heating amides of 2-aryl-amino-6-methylnicotinic acids or 1-aryl-2,7-dimethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidines at reflux with acetic anhydride in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate gives 1-aryl-2-acetonyl-7-methyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 114–116, January, 1985.

4,7-Disubstituted 7H-Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines and Their Analogs as Antiviral Agents against Zika Virus

Discovery of compound 1 as a Zika virus (ZIKV) inhibitor has prompted us to investigate its 7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold, revealing structural features that elicit antiviral activity. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that 9H-purine or 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine can serve as an alternative core structure. Overall, we have identified 4,7-disubstituted 7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines and their analogs including compounds 1, 8 and 11 as promising antiviral agents against flaviviruses ZIKV and dengue virus (DENV). While the molecular target of these compounds is yet to be elucidated, 4,7-disubstituted 7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines and their analogs are new chemotypes in the design of small molecules against flaviviruses, an important group of human pathogens.

Synthesis of a tetracyclic G∧C scaffold for the assembly of rosette nanotubes with 1.7 nm inner diameter

The synthesis of a tetracyclic self-complementary molecule 4 for self-assembly into rosette nanotubes is presented. This new heterocycle has a core structure containing two pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine molecules fused together and features the Watson-Crick hydrogen bond donor-acceptor arrays of both guanine (G) and cytosine (C). Current methods to synthesize pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines require harsh conditions and long reaction times and result usually in low product yields. This is particularly problematic for the direct incorporation of functional groups that cannot withstand these conditions. Here, we present an efficient approach to access the multifunctional pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine intermediate 2 under relatively mild conditions using three regioselective S(N)Ar reactions at C2, C4, and C7 on the trichloro compound 1. The electron-withdrawing group and amino functionalities on 2 are then used as a handle to install the third and fourth rings of 4 using a Friedla?nder-type condensation followed by mixed urea synthesis and cyclization.
