- L -Proline-Catalyzed Cyclization of 6-Aminopyrimidine-4(3 H)-ones with Nitroolefins: Synthesis of Polysubstituted 5-Arylpyrrolo[2,3- d ]pyrimidin-4-ones
-
A simple and efficient one-pot procedure for the synthesis of new pyrrolo[2,3- d ]pyrimidine derivatives has been established through an l -proline-catalyzed cyclization of 6-aminopyrimidine-4(3 H)-one with nitroolefins in water. The reaction at 80 °C in water gives various highly substituted pyrrolo[2,3- d ]pyrimidines in good to excellent yields. This procedure has the advantages of environmental friendliness, good yields, and convenient operation.

- Solid acid-catalyzed domino cyclization reaction: Regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of pyrido[2,3-: D] pyrimidine derivatives bearing three contiguous stereocenters
-
An efficient and green domino approach for the synthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives using a recoverable carbonaceous material as a catalyst has been established. The new domino reaction was conducted by reacting the readily available and inexpensive starting materials 2,6-diaminopyrimidin-4(3H)-one, nitroolefin and aldehyde in water. A total of 24 examples were examined, and showed a broad substrate scope and high yields. The carbonaceous material catalyst can be reused at least 5 times without obvious deactivation. The proposed mechanism has explained the reaction process and the resulting high regio- and diastereoselectivities. The present green strategy shows attractive characteristics such as using water as a green medium, using an inexpensive and recoverable solid acid catalyst, and having a simple work-up/purification, without generating any waste products or using any metal promoters.

- Structure-based design and synthesis of antiparasitic pyrrolopyrimidines targeting pteridine reductase 1
-
The treatment of Human African trypanosomiasis remains a major unmet health need in sub-Saharan Africa. Approaches involving new molecular targets are important; pteridine reductase 1 (PTR1), an enzyme that reduces dihydrobiopterin in Trypanosoma spp., has been identified as a candidate target, and it has been shown previously that substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines are inhibitors of PTR1 from Trypanosoma brucei (J. Med. Chem. 2010, 53, 221-229). In this study, 61 new pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines have been prepared, designed with input from new crystal structures of 23 of these compounds complexed with PTR1, and evaluated in screens for enzyme inhibitory activity against PTR1 and in vitro antitrypanosomal activity. Eight compounds were sufficiently active in both screens to take forward to in vivo evaluation. Thus, although evidence for trypanocidal activity in a stage I disease model in mice was obtained, the compounds were too toxic to mice for further development.

- A New and Efficient Synthesis of Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine Anticancer Agents: Alimta (LY231514, MTA), Homo-Alimta, TNP-351, and Some Aryl 5-Substituted Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines
-
Alimta, as well as homo-Alimta, a nonbridged analogue of Alimta, and TNP-351 have been prepared by a new method that involves Michael addition of the appropriate 1-nitroalkene with 2,6-diamino-3H-pyrimidin-4-one or 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, followed by a Nef reaction of the resulting primary nitro Michael adduct. Spontaneous intramolecular cyclization of the resulting aldehyde with the pyrimidine 6-amino group yields the corresponding pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine. A series of previously unknown 5-arylpyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines was prepared by the same methodology from the above pyrimidines and nitrostyrenes. It has been found that the intermediate primary nitro Michael adduct can be prepared in a single step by sonication of a mixture of an arylaldehyde, nitromethane, and the 6-aminopyrimidine in acetic acid containing ammonium acetate.

- Process for the preparation of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines
-
4(3H)-X-7H-Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines in which X is =O or =NH are prepared by treating a 6-amino-4(3H)-X-pyrimidine with a unsubstituted or substituted 1-nitroalk-1-ene to yield a 6-amino-4(3H)-X-pyrimidine which is substituted in the 5-position by a 1-nitroalk-2-yl group; (ii) converting the 5-(1-nitroalk-2-yl)-6-amino-4(3H)-X-pyrimidine to the corresponding 5-(1-oxoalk-2-yl)-6-amino-4(3H)-X-pyr-imidine; and (iii) removing the elements of water from the 5-(1-oxoalk-2-yl)-6-amino-4(3H)-X-pyrimidine to effect cyclization. A typical embodiment involves treating 2,6-diamino-4(3H)-pyrimidone with 1-nitro-4-(4-ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-1-butene to yield 1 -nitro-2-(2,6-diamino-4(3H)-oxopyrimidin-5-yl)-4-(4-ethoxy-carbonylphenyl)butane which is then treated sequentially with base and acid, without isolation of the intermediate aldehyde, to form 4-[2-(2-amino-4(3H)-oxo-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5-yl)ethyl]benzoic acid, a valuable known chemical intermediate for the preparation of N-[4-{2-(2-hydroxy-4-amino-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]-pyrimidin-5-yl)ethyl}benzoyl]glutamic acid.
