Abstract: The invention describes the pyrimidine-based compounds of the general formula I. Described compounds lower the production of the prostaglandin E2. In concentrations lowering production of this factor by 50%, these compounds have no negative effect on the cell viability and they are not cytotoxic. Furthermore, the method of production of the compounds of the general formula I is provided. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the polysubstituted pyrimidines according to the invention and the use of these compounds for the treatment of the inflammatory diseases are also provided.

Abstract: The invention provides pyrimidine compounds of general formula (I), which reduce simultaneously the production of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). They have no negative effect on the viability of cells in concentrations decreasing the production of these factors by up to 50%; they are not cytotoxic. Furthermore, a method of preparation of the pyrimidine compounds of general formula (I), carrying 2-formamido group, a pharmaceutical composition comprising the substituted pyrimidine compounds according to the invention, and the use of these compounds for the treatment of inflammatory and cancer diseases are provided.

Abstract: The present invention is a method for preparing 2-halo-6-aminopurines, and more specifically for preparing the clinical agent cladribine (2-chloro-2?-deoxyadenosine, CldAdo, 4), a drug of choice against hairy-cell leukemia and other neoplasms, from 2-amino-6-oxopurines, which are readily obtained from the naturally occurring compound 2?-deoxyguanosine. According to the methods of the present invention, the 6-oxo group of a protected 2?-deoxyguanosine (1) is converted to a 6-(substituted oxy) leaving group, or alternatively to a 6-chloro leaving group, the 2-amino group is replaced with a 2-chloro group, the 6-(substituted oxy) leaving group, or alternatively the 6-chloro leaving group, is replaced with a 6-amino group or, alternatively, a 2,6-dichloro substituted compound is selectively replaced with a 6-amino group, and the protecting groups are removed.
