A number of N9-alkyl-substituted purines and purine ribonucleosides have been synthesized as congeners of sulfinosine and evaluated for their antileukemic activity in mice. NaH-mediated alkylation of 6-chloropurine (4) and 2-amino-6-chloropurine (5) with certain alkyl bromides gave N7- and N9-alkylated derivatives (7a-d and 6a-d), the N9-isomer being the major product. Treatment of 6a-d and 7a-d with thiourea furnished the corresponding 6-thio derivatives (9a-d and 8a-d). Amination of 9a-e with aqueous chloramine solution afforded the corresponding purine-6-sulfenamides (10a-e), which on controlled oxidation with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) gave the respective (R,S)-9-alkylpurine-6-sulfinamides (11a-e). A similar oxidation of 2-amino-6-(methyl/benzylthio)-9-beta-D-ribofuranosy (12a and 12b) and 2-amino-9-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythropentofuranosyl)-6-(methylthio)purine (12c) with MCPBA gave the corresponding sulfoxides (13a-c), which on further oxidation furnished the respective sulfones (14a-c). Of the 20 compounds evaluated, six exhibited biologically significant anti-L1210 activity in BD2F(1) mice and reduced body burdens of viable L1210 cells more than 90-97% by single treatment. Although compounds 9b and 9c at 44 mg and 40 mg/kg per day X 1 showed a T/C of 147 and 149, respectively, this group of compounds was found to be less effective than some of the sulfur-containing drugs that we previously described (e.g. sulfenosine and sulfinosine).
