The nucleophilicity of amine nitrogens is also differentiated by their environments. In 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine the most basic 3-amino group can be selectively converted to a Schiff base. It is meta to both pyrimidine nitrogens and does not form a tautomeric imine as do the ortho- and /xira-amino groups. This factor is the basis of the commercial synthesis of triamterene. 

This kind of nucleophilic reaction, when performed with 7H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-7-one (374), however, is reported to give 2-[(/3-aminoacryloyl)imino]-4-thiazoline (375) (Scheme 215) (273, 703),... 

Nitrogen nucleophiles used to diplace the 3 -acetoxy group include substituted pyridines, quinolines, pyrimidines, triazoles, pyrazoles, azide, and even aniline and methylaniline if the pH is controlled at 7.5. Sulfur nucleophiles include aLkylthiols, thiosulfate, thio and dithio acids, carbamates and carbonates, thioureas, thioamides, and most importandy, from a biological viewpoint, heterocycHc thiols. The yields of the displacement reactions vary widely. Two general approaches for improving 3 -acetoxy displacement have been reported. One approach involves initial, or in situ conversion of the acetoxy moiety to a more facile leaving group. The other approach utilizes Lewis or Brmnsted acid activation (87). 

Such calculations have been made also for pyrimidines of biological interest (B-60MI21302). That for uracil (5) is interesting in that a figure of -0.22 is assigned to the 5-position, compared with almost zero in pyrimidine this immediately explains the ease of electrophilic attack at the 5-position of uracil as well as the lack of nucleophilic activity at the same position. 

Despite the fact that the 2-, 4- and 6-positions of pyrimidine are predisposed to direct nucleophilic attack, relatively few simple examples of such reactions are recorded.

A large number of nucleophilic substitution reactions involving interconversions of pyridopyrimidines have been reported, the majority of which involve substituents in the pyrimidine ring. This subject has been reviewed previously in an earlier volume in this series which dealt with the theoretical aspects of nucleophilic re-activiti in azines, and so only a summary of the nucelophilic displacements of the substituent groups will be given here. In general, nucleophilic substitutions occur most readily at the 4-position of pyrido-... 

In common with other fused pyrimidines, the pyridopyrimidines are susceptible to the nucleophilic addition of water across the 3,4-bond. This is the phenomenon of covalent hydration... 

All these methods demonstrate that the 2-positions of pyridine, pyrimidine, and other azines are the most electron deficient in the ground state. However, considerably greater chemical reactivity toward nucleophiles at the 4-position is often observed in syntheses and is supported by kinetic studies. Electron deficiency in the ground state is related to the ability to stabilize the pair of electrons donated by the nucleophile in the transition state. However, it is not so directly related that it can explain the relative reactivity at different ring-positions. Certain factors which appear to affect positional selectivity are discussed in Section II, B. 

Reactions of iV -alkylated or arylated azinium compounds with nucleophiles proceed more readily than those of the parent, uncation-ized azines, and the ring tends to open. The iV -substituent may bring into play an accelerative effect from the London forces of attraction. Increased displaceability of the substituent in iV -alkyl-azinium compounds has been noted for 2-halopyridinium (87) 1-haloisoquinolinium, 4-halopyrimidinium, 4-methoxypyrid-inium (88), 4-phenoxy- and 4-acetamido-quinazolinium (89), 3-methylthiopyridazinium, and 2-car boxymethylthiopyrimidi-nium salts (90). The latter was prepared in situ from the iV -alkyl-pyrimidine-2-thione. The activation can be effectively transmitted to... 

The catalytic effect of protons has been noted on many occasions (cf. Section II,D,2,c) and autocatalysis frequently occurs when the nucleophile is not a strong base. Acid catalysis of reactions with water, alcohols, mercaptans, amines, or halide ions has been observed for halogeno derivatives of pyridine, pyrimidine (92), s-triazine (93), quinoline, and phthalazine as well as for many other ring systems and leaving groups. An interesting displacement is that of a 4-oxo group in the reaction of quinolines with thiophenols, which is made possible by the acid catalysis.
