摘要:
AbstractA series of the title compounds, 9‐deazaxanthines, was regioselectively prepared in reasonable yields as major products from the reactions of 6‐azidouracils 1a,b with stabilized ester‐2a,b or keto‐2c ylide phosphoranes and a moderated phosphorus ylide 3, instead of the expected triazoles. Side products were also observed wherein pyrimido[5,4‐g]pteridine‐2,4,5,7‐tetrone (15) and other fused ring systems or acyclic‐substituted uracil derivatives were isolated. A comparative study on the reactivity of 1a in analogy to 1b toward phosphoranes is also described. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
