Abstract:The synthesis of analogues of the anti-tumour drug 2-[N-(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]-4,6-bis(dimethylamino)-1,3,5-triazine (HMPMM) in which the OH or a dimethylamino group is replaced by a carbohydrate has been explored. Triazinyl beta-glycosides were readily prepared by reaction of sugars with trimethyl-triazinylammonium salts. These were made with one or two methylamino groups on the triazine for reaction with formaldehyde to give the cytotoxic NMeCH2OH group. However, reaction of the triazinyl glycosides wit… Show more
