Pteridines CX

A series of new 6-substituted 2,4-diaminopteridines (3-23) and pterins (26-43) have been synthesized by nucleophilic displacement reactions at the side chain of 6-bromomethyl-2,4-diaminopteridine (2) and 6- bromomethylpterin (25) using various types of 0-, N- and S-nucleophiles. Acid and base hydrol...

Description
Summary:A series of new 6-substituted 2,4-diaminopteridines (3-23) and pterins (26-43) have been synthesized by nucleophilic displacement reactions at the side chain of 6-bromomethyl-2,4-diaminopteridine (2) and 6- bromomethylpterin (25) using various types of 0-, N- and S-nucleophiles. Acid and base hydrolyses allow easy conversion of the 2,4-diaminopteridines (3-5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 19-21 and 23) into the corresponding pterins (26-32, 39-42). Acylations take place at the amino as well as at the functional groups in the side chain (44-46). A versatile protection of the amino group in pterins is its transformation into the N ,N -dimethylaminomethylcnimino function by amide-acetals (47, 50) allowing subsequently selective acylations at the side chain (48, 49).
