Antiinflammatory agents: new series of N-substituted amino acids with complex pyrimidine structures endowed with antiphlogistic activity.
A series of N-methyl-N-pyrimidin-2-yl glycines 2a-e, having the pyrimidine ring fused with a cyclohexane [N-methyl-N-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinazolin-2-yl)glycine], cyclohexene [N-methyl-N-(5,6-dihydroquinazolin-2-yl)glycine], 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene [N-methyl-N-(5,6-dihydrobenzo[e]quinazolin-2-yl)glycine], benzopyrane [N-methyl-N-(5-phenyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)glyci ne] and benzothiopyrane [N-methyl-N-(5H-[1]benzothiopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)glycine] ring, was prepared and tested for antiinflammatory activity. With the same purpose a number of N-5H-[1]benzopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl substituted amino acids 3a-e, having a different chain length and branching were also synthesized and tested. All the described products 2 and 3 showed an appreciable antiphlogistic activity, particularly 2b and 2c.
