In the process of developing GnRH receptor antagonists, a novel base-catalyzed cyclization of compounds 5a-b was discovered, which led to the formation of the 2-aryl pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimid-7-one core stuctures 6a-b. These intermediates were further modified at positions 1, 2, 4 and 6 to afford a series of potent GnRH antagonists with low nanomolar K-i values. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
