A class of chromophore-modified anthracenediones with an additional pyrimidine ring incorporated into the chromophore system has been obtained in an attempt to provide compounds with diminished peroxidation activity and thus potentially lowered cardiotoxicity.Their synthesis was carried out by the reaction of 6-amino- or 6-hydroxy-7H-benzoperimidin-7-one with a number of alkylamines.Potent activity was demonstrated in vitro against murine L1210 leukemia cells (equipotent with ametantrone) as well as against P388 leukemia in vivo (percent T/C=130-255).We observed that the benzoperimidines did not stimulate free radical formation, perhaps due to their poor substrate properties for NADH dehydrogenase.

A new reaction between 2-aminobenzophenone and thiourea in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been developed that primarily affords 4-phenylquinazoline as a single product. This reaction is also applicable, in general, to the reactions between thiourea and conformation-restricted β-amino ketones, such as 1-aminoanthracene-9,10-dione and 1-amino-9H-fluoren-9-one, to prepare perimidine derivatives. Experimental data is consistent with our computational study on the thermal decomposition of thiourea to form hydrogen sulfide and carbodiimide. This reaction involves a coupling between 2-aminobenzophenone and carbodiimide generated in situ from thiourea to form 4-phenylquinazolin-2(1H)-imine intermediate, and the generation of sulfur-containing reducing agent from hydrogen sulfide and DMSO, which reduces 4-phenylquinazolin-2(1H)-imine to 4-phenyl-1,2-dihydroquinazolin-2-amine. Elimination of ammonia from the latter yields 4-phenylquinazoline.
