A new LiI-promoted O- to N-alkyl migration has been developed for the conversion of O-alkylated 2-hydroxy pyridines, quinolines, and pyrimidines to the corresponding N-alkylated heterocycles in good to excellent yields (57-99%). This method serves as an efficient means for the preparation of N-benzyl pyridones, quinolones, and pyrimidones.

A method is described for using the cross-linking reagent 4'-(hydroxy-methyl)-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen (HMT) to map base paired regions and higher-order structure within RNA molecules. Applying this method to yeast tRNAPhe, we have specifically identified cross-links within the acceptor stem between U6 X U68, in the D-stem between C11 X C25, and in the T psi-stem between U50 X C63 and U52 X C63...

Various 4'-hydroxy-3',5'-dinitro substituted chalcones 1 and S-benzylthiouronium chloride (SBT) 2 in the presence of DMF-organic bases (morpholine/ pyrrolidine/ piperidine) gave 4,6-diaryl-2-(4-morpholinyl / 1pyrrolidinyl /1-piperidinyl)pyrimidines 4, 5 and 6 in a facile one-pot conversion. In an another attempt reactants 1 and 2 yielded intermediate 2-benzylthiopyrimidines 3, in presence of DM...

One of the main directions steroid research is preparation modified derivatives in which, addition to changes physicochemical properties, receptor binding significantly altered, thus a bioactivity different from that parent compound predominates. In frame this work, 2-arylidene were first synthesized by regioselective modification A-ring natural sex hormone, 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). After ...

The Zn(2+), Cd(2+), Hg(2+), Co(2+) and Ni(2+) ions produce zwitterionic type complexes with the ligands (L), 2-(alpha-hydroxy-benzyl)thiamine=HBT and 2-(alpha-hydroxy-cyclohexyl-methyl)thiamine = HCMT, of the type MLCl(3). The ligands are in the S conformation, the metals are bound to N(1), of the pyrimidine moiety of thiamine and the complexes have a trigonally distorted tetrahedral structure,...

biginelli-type pyrimidines contain an interesting moiety which has attracted considerable attention of medicinal chemists in the last few decades. despite the very diverse pharmacologic effects ascribed to this kind of pyrimidines, there are few reports on the antioxidant evaluation of biginelli pyrimidines. in this study synthesis of some novel biginelli-type pyrimidines is reported. the prepa...

In this study, a series of syntheses was conducted on the pyrimidine system, obtaining bisulfite carboxyl derivatives 4 and hydroxy derivatives 5. In addition, a series of syntheses were carried out as a result of which both alkyl and aromatic amines were obtained. Then, the attempt was made to cyclize these amines in the Mannich reaction to pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidines 11, 12. After determinatio...
