Theses and Dissertations

The synthesis of analogs of toxoflavin: 1,3,4,6-tetramethyl-1,5,6, 7-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]-5,7-pyridazinedione; 1,6-dimethyl-3,4-diphenyl-1,5,6,7-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]-5,7-pyridazinedione; 3,5,7-trimethyl-8-phenyl-2,3,4,8-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]-2,4-pyrimidinedione are discussed. The synthesis of analogs of fervenulin: 3,4,6-trimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]-5,7-pyridazinedione; 6-methyl-3,4-diphenyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-c]-5,7-pyridazinedione; 2-hydroxy-3,5,7-trimethyl-4(3H)pyrido[2,3-d]-2,4-pyrimidinone are discussed. Several intermediates have been prepared: 6 -methylamino-3-methyluracil by a new method; 6-n-propylamino-3-methyluracil: 6-n-butylamino-3-methyluracil and 3-ethyl-2-ethylthio-2-hydroxy-4(3H)pyrimidinone.
