The bifunctional pyrazolopyridine (2) and pyrano-pyrazole (3) derivatives were prepared by the reaction of 2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-5-methyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one (1) with p-methoxybenzaldehyde, malononitrile in the presence of ammonium acetate or piperidine, respectively. Compound 2 was used as the key intermediate to prepare the pyrazolo-pyrido-pyrimidine derivatives through its reaction ...

An 18F-labeled pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivative, 7-(2-chlorophenylamino)-5-((2-[18F] fluoroethyoxy)methyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile ([18F]5), has been designed and prepared as a radio tracer candidate for tumor detection with positron emission tomography (PET). The desired product [18F]5 was synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding tosylated precursor wit...

Department of Pharmaceutical technology, Meerut Institute of Engineering and Technology, Meerut. ABSTRACT Pyrazole and pyrimidine derivatives attracted organic chemists due to their various biological and chemotherapeutic significance. Pyrazolopyrimidines and related fused heterocycles are of important as probable bioactive molecules. The heterocyclic fusion of pyrimidine ring and pyrazole ring...

In the title pyrimidine derivative, C(24)H(28)N(2)O(3), the uracil unit is essentially planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0054 (1) Å for the eight non-H atoms. The pyrimidine ring is tilted by a dihedral angle of 77.08 (7)° with respect to the aromatic ring of the 3,5-dimethyl-benzyl substituent, whereas it is nearly parallel to the benzene ring of the pheneth-oxy-methyl unit, with a dihedral...

The kinetics of the de nouo formation of pyrimidine deoxyribonucleotides is the same after infection by wild type bacteriophage T4, which generate very low steady state levels of deoxyribonucleotides, and by T4 DNA synthesis-negative mutants (Dna-1, which accumulate high levels, suggesting that the control is not by a feedback mechanism. In this study, the ratio of the de nouo synthesis of dTMP...

there has been special interest in the chemistry of quinolone and pyrimidine derivatives due to their diverse biological activities such as anticonvulsant, anti-malarial agents, antibacterial, antiviral, cytostatic, antithelemintic, antigenotoxic, anti-cancer agents. these compounds are also used as targeting delayed-type hypersensivity and anti-convulsant agents. as a part of our research work...

Oligonucleotides incorporating the 7-propynyl derivatives of 8-aza-7-deaza-2'-deoxyguanosine (3b) and 8-aza-7-deaza-2'-deoxyadenosine (4b) were synthesized and their duplex stability was compared with those containing the 5-propynyl derivatives of 2'-deoxycytidine (1) and 2'-deoxyuridine (2). For this purpose phosphoramidites of the 8-aza- 7-deazapurine (pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine) nucleosides w...

Candida albicans is the most prevalent yeast pathogen in humans, and recently it has become increasingly resistant to the current antifungal agents. In this study we investigated C. albicans dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH, EC 1.3.99.11), which catalyzes the fourth step of de novo pyrimidine synthesis, as a new target for controlling infection. We propose that the enzyme is a member of the ...
