Abstract
A variety of novel 2-methylthio-3-substituted-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones have been synthesized by reacting (2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)dithiocarbamic acid methyl ester (5) with a variety of amines. The starting material dithiocarbamate (5) was synthesized from 2-amino-3-carbethoxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thiophene (1) by a novel innovative route. The title compounds were investigated for analgesic, anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenicity index and antibacterial activities. While the test compounds exhibited significant activity, the compounds 1-methyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A1), 1-dimethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A2), 1-diethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A3) and 1-pyrrolidinyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A4) showed more potent analgesic activity and the compounds 1-dimethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A2), 1-diethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A3) and 1-pyrrolidinyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d] pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A4) showed more potent anti-inflammatory activity than the reference standard diclofenac sodium.
