Abstract
5-Alkyl-5,6-dihydrobenzimidazo[2,1 -h]pteridine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones (4 a–d) have been synthesised by the condensation of 2-(alkyl-aminomethyl)benzimidazole dihydrochloride (1 a–d) with 5-bromobarbituric acid (2). Similarly, 5-alkyl-5,6-dihydro-4 a-nitrobenzimidazo[2,1 -h] pteridine-2,4(3H,4aH)-diones (10 a–d) have also been synthesised by the condensation of1 a–d with 5-bromo-5-nitrobarbituric acid (8) followed by cyclisation of the intermediate 5-[(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)alkylamino]-5-nitrobarbituric acid (9 a–d) with 5% NaOH. Thermal cyclisation of the intermediates9 a–d have also been studied. Methylation of the compound10 a has been carried out with CH3I and K2CO3 usingD M F as solvent to confirm cyclisation. The structures are supported by elemental analyses, IR and PMR spectra.
Zusammenfassung
Die 5-Alkyl-5,6-dihydrobenzimidazo[2,1 -h]pteridin-2,4(1H,3H)-dione4 a-d wurden mittels Kondensation von 2-(Alkylaminomethyl)benzimidazolidhydrochloriden1 a–d mit 5-Brombarbitursäure (2) dargestellt. In ähnlicher Weise wurden die 5-Alkyl-5,6-dihydro-4a-nitrobenzimidazo[2,1 -h]pteridin-2,4(3H,4aH)-dione10 a–d über die Kondensation von1 a–d mit 5-Brom-5-nitrobarbitursäure (8) und nachfolgender Cyclisierung der intermediären 5-[(Benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)alkylamino]-5-nitrobarbitursäuren9 a–d mit 5% NaOH dargestellt. Die thermische Cyclisierung der Produkte9 a–d wurde ebenfalls untersucht. Die Verbindungen wurden mittels Elementaranalyse, IR und PMR charakterisiert.
