Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical synthesis technology, and particularly to methods for synthesizing a series of 4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one-1,3,5-triazine derivatives and their applications. Background Technology
[0002] Cancer is a collective term for a complex group of diseases that can occur in almost any organ or tissue, and their development is often closely related to gene mutations. Cancer is now the second leading cause of death worldwide, after cardiovascular disease. A wide range of treatments are available for cancer, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Chemotherapy is the primary clinical treatment for tumors; however, traditional chemotherapy drugs face many obstacles, such as cytotoxicity, drug resistance, and lack of sensitivity, thus limiting their application.
[0003] Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds are cyclic compounds containing nitrogen atoms. In addition to carbon atoms, the rings contain at least one nitrogen atom, making them the most numerous class of organic compounds. They are widely found in nature and have important applications in drug development and materials science. The most common heteroatoms in heterocyclic compounds are nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen atoms. They can be divided into two main categories: aliphatic heterocyclic compounds and aromatic heterocyclic compounds. Heterocyclic compounds are commonly found in the structures of drug molecules. The most common heterocyclic compounds are five-membered and six-membered heterocycles, as well as benzo[a]heterocyclic compounds. Five-membered heterocyclic compounds include furan, thiophene, and thiazole, while six-membered heterocyclic compounds include pyridine, pyrimidine, and pyridazine, and possess various activities such as antitumor, antiviral, antiparasitic, antioxidant, and antimalarial effects. 4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one is a fused pyrimidine scaffold containing two nitrogen atoms and exhibits various biological activities such as antitumor, antioxidant, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory effects.
[0004] Triazine compounds are six-membered heterocyclic compounds containing three nitrogen atoms. They possess advantages such as easy hydrogen bonding and good stability, exhibiting multi-channel pharmacological properties and important industrial applications. Literature review shows that triazine derivatives have good antitumor activity. Summary of the Invention

The reaction was monitored by TLC (petroleum ether: ethyl acetate = 1:1). After the reaction, the mixture was continuously extracted with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and ethyl acetate. The ester was removed by rotary evaporation under vacuum, and 2-((4-chloro-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)oxy)-7-fluoro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one was obtained by column chromatography. 2-((4-chloro-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)oxy)-7-fluoro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one was dissolved in anhydrous K₂CO₃ in an appropriate amount of acetonitrile. A secondary amine was slowly added dropwise at room temperature.
