摘要
The synthesis of a novel planar, potentially aromatic, ring-expanded xanthine analogue (1), containing the 5:7-fused imidazo[4,5-e][1,4]diazepine ring system, along with guanase inhibition studies are reported. The compound was synthesized in six steps, starting from 1-benzyl-5-nitroimidazole-4-carboxylic acid (2), and was biochemically screened against rabbit liver guanase. Compound 1 is a moderate competitive inhibitor of the enzyme with a K-i of 2.27 +/- 0.66 x 10(-4) M. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
