based inhibitors of xanthine oxidase is described. After a high-throughput screening campaign, an NMR based counterscreen was used to distinguish actives, which interact with XO in a reversible manner, from assay artefacts. This approach identified pyrimidone 1 as a reversible and competitiveinhibitor with good lead-like properties. A hit to lead campaign gave compound 41, a nanomolar inhibitor of hXO

The immunological agent bropirimine 5 is a tetra-substituted pyrimidine with anticancer and interferon-inducing properties. Synthetic routes to novel 5-aryl analogues of bropirimine have been developed and their potential molecular recognition properties analysed by molecular modelling methods. Sterically challenged 2-amino-5-halo-6-phenylpyrimidin-4-ones (halo = Br or I) are poor substrates for palladium catalysed Suzuki cross-coupling reactions with benzeneboronic acid because the basic conditions of the reaction converts the amphoteric pyrimidinones to their unreactive enolic forms. Palladium-mediated reductive dehalogenation of the pyrimidinone substrates effectively competes with cross-coupling. 2-Amino-5-halo-4-methoxy-6-phenylpyrimidines can be converted to a range of 5-aryl derivatives with the 5-iodopyrimidines being the most efficient substrates. Hydrolysis of the 2-amino-5-aryl-4-methoxy-6-phenylpyrimidines affords the required pyrimidin-4-ones in high yields. Semi-empirical quantum mechanical calculations show how the nature of the 5-substituent influences the equilibrium between the 1H- and 3H-tautomeric forms, and the rotational freedom about the bond connecting the 6-phenyl group and the pyrimidine ring. Both of these factors may influence the biological properties of these compounds. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
