Abstract:
Solid-phase synthesis was employed to construct a library of thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives. The free amide at the 5-position of the thiazole, which was previously difficult to introduce via the Thorpe-Ziegler reaction, was successfully optimized in solid-phase synthesis using a 2,4-dimethoxy-substituted scaffold, and using iodine as a catalyst, the reaction with aldehyde successfully synthesized thiazolo-pyrimidinone derivatives. To synthesize thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives, the direct amination reaction using BOP was successfully optimized. By applying the optimized conditions to solid-phase synthesis, a library of 36 derivatives was constructed, achieving average yields of 63-93% over six steps.

Preparation of 1° Amines: Gabriel Synthesis
Strong bases like NaOH or KOH deprotonate the phthalimide to form the corresponding anion, which acts as a nucleophile. Further, the anion attacks an...
Preparation of 1° Amines: Azide Synthesis
Azide ions act as good nucleophiles and react with unhindered alkyl halides to form alkyl azides. Alkyl azides do not participate in further nucleophilic substitution reactions, thereby eliminating the chances of polyalkylated products. Alkyl azides are reduced by hydride-based reducing agents, like lithium aluminum...
