An efficient, safe and improved process for the preparation of ticagrelor 1, a platelet aggregation inhibitor is described. Synthesis comprises the condensation of pyrimidine amine derivative 14 with cyclopentyl derivative 13 in ethylene glycol followed by construction of triazole compound 16 by diazotization of the obtained intermediate 15 with a green and safer reagent "Resin-NO2" in water an...

Antiangiogenic agents have been widely investigated in combination with standard chemotherapy or targeted cancer agents for better management of advanced cancers. Therapeutic agents that concurrently inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor and other angiokinases could be useful alternatives to combination therapies for epidermal growth factor receptor-dependent cancers. Here, we report the syn...

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) plays a crucial role in cancer angiogenesis. In this study, a series of novel furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine and thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine based-derivatives were designed and synthesized as VEGFR-2 inhibitors, in accordance to the structure activity relationship (SAR) studies of known type II VEGFR-2 inhibitors. The synthesized compounds were evaluat...

The title compound, C17H12N4O3, a pyrido-pyrrolo-pyrimidine derivative, is almost planar. The nitro-benzene ring is inclined to the mean plane of the 8,9-di-hydro-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrrolo-[1,2-a]pyrimidin-5(7H)-one moiety (r.m.s. deviation = 0.023 Å) by 6.8 (1)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to (101).

A series of naphthopyran derivatives 3a-f were prepared. Reaction of 2-amino-4-(p-chlorophenyl)-7-methoxy-4H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-3-carbonitrile (3b) with Ac2O afforded two products, 2-acetylamino-7-methoxy-4-(p-chlorophenyl)-4H-naphtho-[2,1-b]pyran-3-carbonitrile (4) and 10,11-dihydro-3-methoxy-9-methyl-12-(p-chloro-phenyl)-12H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran[2,3-d]pyrimidine-11-one (5) and treatment of 3b...

A method for the synthesis of 1-(5-methyl-2-furoyl)thymine (7) and 1-(5-methyl-2-furyl)thymine (8) is described. Trimethylsilyliodide catalysed addition of 5-methyl-2,4-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)pyrimidine (9) to 2-methyl-2,5-dihydro-2,5-dimethoxyfuran yielded the new thymine derivative 13. Photooxidations of 7 and 8 gave not the expected addition products but furan endoperoxides and hydroperoxides...

Copper-free click reactions between a dibenzoazocine derivative and azides derived from 5-methyluridine were investigated. The non-catalyzed reaction yielded both regioisomers in an approximately equivalent ratio. The NMR spectra of each regioisomer revealed conformational isomery. The ratio of isomers was dependent on the type of regioisomer and the type of solvent. The synthesis of various an...
