New gamma-fluoromethotrexates modified in the pteridine ring: synthesis and in vitro immunosuppressive activity.
    European journal of medicinal chemistry, 2000, Volume: 35, Issue:5

    Our continuing program to develop new antifolate drugs useful against rheumatoid arthritis led us to modify the pteridine ring of gamma-fluoromethotrexate. Pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives 1e and 1t were found to exhibit potent suppressive effects on the responses of both T and B cells to mitogens, although tetrahydropyridopyrimidine derivatives 2e and 2t and quinazoline derivatives 3e, 3t and 4e showed very weak suppressive activities. Thus, conversion of the pteridine ring of gamma-fluoromethotrexate to a pyrrolopyrimidine ring led to a new potential antirheumatic compound.
