Pyrazolo pyrimidine 4-amino-2- -, preparation

Aryl-6-phenyl-2-methylthio/secondary amino substituted-4(3//)-pyrimidinones were derived from a reaction of N-arylamino substituted 1,3-diaza-1,3-butadienes with substituted ketenes that was analyzed by computational methods <97T13829>. 1,3-Diazines related to 6-amino-4-chloro-5-cyano-2-(dimethylamino)pyrimidine were prepared in one-pot fashion from 1,1-diamino-2,2-dicyanoethylene and phosgeniminium chloride <97SC1223>. Pyrazolo[3,4- /]pyrimidines were derived from 4-substituted 5-aminopyrazole-l-carbothioamides <97JCR(S)352>. Amino-5-(trifluoromethyl)-l,2,4-triazole gave polysubstituted 2-... 

Pyrazolo[l,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates (1402) were prepared in 70% yields in the reaction of 3-aminopyrazoles and diethyl amino(trichloro-methyl)methylenemalonate in boiling ethanol in the presence of sodium ethoxide for 6 hr (78JPR533). 

Pyrazolo[l,5-a]pyrimidines and imidazo[l,2-fc]pyrazoles have been prepared from phosphine derivatives of 5-amino-3-phenylpyrazole in aza-Wittig reactions with selected a -chloroketones. 24°... 

This high-pressure methodology was later used by several groups, e.g., for the preparation of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) derivatives [91] and oligoanilines [92]. More intriguingly, the synthesis of enantiomerically pure C-6 substituted pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines 147 has been performed by SNAr reaction of 4-amino-6-chloro-l-phenylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (145) under high-pressure conditions at ambient temperature. Conventional synthetic conditions (reflux at 0.1 MPa) were unsuccessful. The S enantiomer displayed higher affinity and selectivity for the adenosine Al receptor than the R enantiomer (Scheme 40) [93]. 

The use of high pressure is also essential for preparing racemic and enantiomerically pure C4 amino pyrazolo[3,4-fi(]pyrimidines 143 in satisfactory yield by, S Ar reaction of 4-amino-6-chloro-l-phenylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (141) with the appropriate 2-aminopropan-amides 142 in racemic or enantiomerically pure form. At 1.5 GPa pressure the (5)-enantiomer 143 has been prepared in good yield and shows a high affinity and selectivity for the adenosine Al receptor. The same reactions at atmospheric pressure have been unsuccessful (Scheme 7.35). 

Thiourea has been used similarly to prepare, at 175°C (3 hr) up to 205°C (20 min), good yields of annelated 2-thioxopyrimidin-4-ones such as 8-methyl-2-thioxo-8-azapurin-6-one (156) from 4-amino-1,2,3-triazole-5-car-boxamides (see 20),254 as well as pyrazolo[4,3-d]- and pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyri-midinediones from the appropriate aminopyrazolecarboxamides (see 15) 24,221 and thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones (see 12) from 2-amino-thiophene-3-carboxamide.25 5... 

Cycloaddition and cyclization routes were used to access certain 1,3-diazines. The 4+2 cycloaddition reaction of 4-(N-allyl-N-aryl)amino-l,3-diaza-l,3-butadienes with vinyl-, isopropenyl-, and chloroketene led to pyrimidinone-fused pyrimidinones <97T13841>. Cis-cyclopenta[d]pyrimidines were derived from cis-2-amino-l-cyclopentanecarboxylates by cyclization with KOCN and KSCN <97JHC1211>. 2-Thioxopyrido[3, 2 4,5]thieno[3,2-r/]pyrimidin-4(3//)-ones 19 were prepared by cyclocondensation of 2-carbethoxy-3-amino-4-phenyl-6-substituted-thieno[2,3-/)]pyridines and isothiocyanates <97JHC937>. Thiazolyl-benzimidazoles derived from 2-cyanomethyl-l//-benzimidazole and 2,3-dihydrothiazole-2-(3//)-thiones were cyclized to the corresponding thiazolo[4,5-r/]pyrimidines <97PHA346>. Reductive cyclization of 6-cyanomethyl-5-nitropyrimidines afforded 7-alkyl-5//-pyrrolo[3,2-r/]pyrimidines and 6-amino-7,7-dialkyl-7//-pyrrolo[3,2-rf]pyrimidines <97T391>. 7-Methyl-5-alkyl-2-vinyl-pyrazolo[3,4-r/]pyrimidine-4,6(5//,7//)-diones arose from cyclization and alkylation of... 

Vega developed an efficient synthesis of pyrazolo[3,4- /]pyrimidines based on the electrophilic properties of nitrilium salts formed by reaction of 5-aroylaminopyrazoles, nitriles and Lewis acids. Treating iminolyl halides with nitriles with SnCU gave rise of the nonisolated nitrilium salts, which underwent cyclization to generate the desired pyrazolo[3,4-i/]pyrimidines in moderate to good yields. A similar approach was extended to the preparation of 4-amino-2-phenylquinazolines via cyclization of V-arylbenzamides with cyanamide catalyzed by TiCU. ...
