A novel and practical procedure was developed for the preparation of steroidal[17,16-d]pyrimidines by chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCl)-promoted one-pot multicomponent Biginelli-like condensations of steroid-17-ones, urea and aromatic aldehydes. First, treatment of the steroid-17-ones with urea and aromatic aldehydes in dimethylformamide (DMF)/acetonitrile (ACN) gives the corresponding Biginelli products, following the aromatising reaction of the Biginelli products at the same time under air to yield the desired steroidal[17,16-d]pyrimidines (78-88%). Since steroidal[17,16-d]pyrimidines with hydroxyl group can be subsequently converted into steroidal[17,16-d]pyrimidine derivatives, this general method provides a highly efficient route to these biologically important compounds.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011743 Pyrimidines A family of 6-membered heterocyclic compounds occurring in nature in a wide variety of forms. They include several nucleic acid constituents (CYTOSINE; THYMINE; and URACIL) and form the basic structure of the barbiturates.
D000447 Aldehydes Organic compounds containing a carbonyl group in the form -CHO. Aldehyde
D013256 Steroids A group of polycyclic compounds closely related biochemically to TERPENES. They include cholesterol, numerous hormones, precursors of certain vitamins, bile acids, alcohols (STEROLS), and certain natural drugs and poisons. Steroids have a common nucleus, a fused, reduced 17-carbon atom ring system, cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene. Most steroids also have two methyl groups and an aliphatic side-chain attached to the nucleus. (From Hawley's Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 11th ed) Steroid,Catatoxic Steroids,Steroids, Catatoxic
D014297 Trimethylsilyl Compounds Organic silicon derivatives used to characterize hydroxysteroids, nucleosides, and related compounds. Trimethylsilyl esters of amino acids are used in peptide synthesis. Compounds, Trimethylsilyl
D014508 Urea A compound formed in the liver from ammonia produced by the deamination of amino acids. It is the principal end product of protein catabolism and constitutes about one half of the total urinary solids. Basodexan,Carbamide,Carmol
