A variety of quinazolines, pyrido [2, 3-d] pyrimidines, and pteridines were evaluated as inhibitors of dihydrofolate re-ductase obtained from rat liver and L1210 mouse leukemia cells. Certain of the 2, 4-diaminoquinazolines bearing benzylamino or anilinomethyl substituents at position 6 proved to be capable of inhibiting enzyme activity, from both sources, to a degree (ID5o 10~ 8-10-9 M) comparable to that observed for the antineoplastic agent methotrex-ate. In the quinazoline series, the presence of primary amino groups at positions 2 and 4 was essential for high in-hibitory potency. Neither introduction of halogen, methyl, or hydroxyl substituents anywhere into the phenyl ring of 2, 4-diamino-6-benzylaminoquinazoline (1) nor replacement of the phenyl substituent with heteroaromatic func-tions (pyridyl, furyl, thienyl) markedly affected inhibitory potency. On the other hand, the presence of a chloro substituent at position 5 of 1 was associated with a pronounced increase in inhibitory potency. Interestingly, 2, 4-diamino-6-piperidinoquinazoline was found to possess modest activity (IDso= 2 x 10 “8 M) as an inhibitor ofboth enzyme systems studied, and insertionof a 2-ethyl function into the piperidine ring of this compound produced an approximately 50-fold increase in inhibitory potency. 2, 4-Diaminopyrido [2, 3-d] pyrimidines investigated were as po-tent as the analogous quinazolines as inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase activity from both sources. A series of 2, 4-diaminopteridines characterized by a progressive increase in the size of an alicyclic ring fused to positions 6 and 7 of the pteridine nucleus was evaluated against both enzyme systems. A consistent trend of increased inhibitory potency with increasing ring size was observed and is exemplified by the lower IDso observed for the compound bearing a 12-membered ring (IDso= 2.1 X 10-7 M) compared with that for the compound bearing a six-membered ring (IDso= 1.9 x 10" 4M).Many compounds possessing the 2, 4-diaminopyrimidine nucleus, including a variety of pteridines, can function as inhibitors of dihydrofolatereductase [5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydrofo-late: NAD (P) oxidoreductase EC 1.5. 1.3.] from bacteri-al, 1'3 protozoal, 4'7 and mammalian sources. 8" 10 The types of compounds which have been synthesized as potential inhibitors of this enzyme system include quinazolines and pyrido [2, 3-d] pyrimidines, which differ from pteridine by, respectively, the absence of two and one nitrogen atoms in the ring fused to the pyrimidine nucleus.
