Advances in the chemical and biological diversity of heterocyclic systems incorporating pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine and pyrimido[1,6-c]pyrimidine scaffolds

Heterocycles incorporating a pyrimidopyrimidine scaffold have aroused great interest from researchers in the field of medical chemistry because of their privileged biological activities; they are used as anti-bacterial, antiviral, anti-tumor, anti-allergic, antihypertensive, anticancer, and hepatoprotective agents. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the chemistry of heterocycles incorporating pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine and pyrimido[1,6-c]pyrimidine skeletons and their biological characteristics. The main sections discuss (1) the synthetic routes to obtain substituted pyrimidopyrimidines, pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidin-diones, pyrimidoquinazolines, tricyclic, tetracyclic, and binary systems; (2) the reactivity of the substituents attached to the pyrimidopyrimidine skeleton, including thione and amide groups, nucleophilic substitutions, condensations, ring transformations, and coordination chemistry; (3) compounds of this class of heterocycles containing a significant characteristic scaffold and possessing a wide range of biological characteristics.

Bicyclic 6 + 6 systems: the chemistry of pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidines and pyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidines

The present study provides an overview of the chemistry and biological significance of pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine and pyrimido[5,4-d]pyrimidine analogs as types of bicyclic [6 + 6] systems. The main sections include: (1) synthesis methods; (2) the reactivities of the substituents linked to the ring carbon and nitrogen atoms; and (3) biological applications. A discussion demonstrating the proposed mechanisms of unexpected synthetic routes is intended. The aim of this study is to discuss the synthetic significance of the titled compounds and to establish the biological characteristics of this class of compounds as studied to date, where the compounds have been applied on a large scale in the medical and pharmaceutical fields. This survey will help researchers in the fields of synthetic organic and medicinal chemistry to undertake and improve new approaches for the construction of new standard biological components.
