ituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines with a thienoyl side chain and four to six carbon bridge lengths (compounds 1−3) were synthesized as substrates for folate receptors (FRs) and the proton-coupled folate transporter (PCFT). Conversion of acetylene carboxylic acids to α-bromomethylketones and condensation with 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine afforded the 6-substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines. Sonogashira
合成了具有噻吩酰基侧链和 4 到 6 个碳桥长度的2-氨基-4-氧代-6-取代的吡咯并[2,3- d ]嘧啶(化合物1 - 3)作为叶酸受体 (FR) 的底物和质子偶联叶酸转运蛋白 (PCFT)。乙炔羧酸转化为α-溴甲基酮并与2,4-二氨基-6-羟基嘧啶缩合得到6-取代的吡咯并[2,3- d ]嘧啶。薗头与(耦合小号)-2 - [(5-溴-噻吩-2-羰基) -氨基] -戊二酸二乙酯,随后氢化和皂化,得到1 - 3。化合物1和2有效抑制表达 FRα、减少叶酸载体 (RFC) 和 PCFT 的 KB 和 IGROV1 人类肿瘤细胞。类似物对 FR 和 PCFT 比 RFC 具有选择性。甘氨酰胺核糖核苷酸甲酰转移酶是主要的细胞靶标。在具有 KB 肿瘤的 SCID 小鼠中,1对早期(3.5 log 杀死,1/5 治愈)和晚期(3.7 log 杀死,4/5 完全缓解)阶段的肿瘤具有高度活性。我们的结果表明,由于
