In an attempt to improve specific biological functions of cytokinins routinely used in plant micropropagation, 33 6-benzylamino-9-tetrahydropyran-2-ylpurine (THPP) and 9-tetrahydrofuran-2-ylpurine (THFP) derivatives, with variously positioned hydroxy and methoxy functional groups on the benzyl ring, were prepared. The new derivatives were prepared by condensation of 6-chloropurine with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran or 2,3-dihydrofuran and then by the condensation of these intermediates with the corresponding benzylamines. The prepared compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, TLC, HPLC, melting point determinations, CI+ MS and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The cytokinin activity of all the prepared derivatives was assessed in three classical cytokinin bioassays (tobacco callus, wheat leaf senescence and Amaranthus bioassay). The derivatives 6-(3-hydroxybenzylamino)-9-tetrahydropyran-2-ylpurine (3) and 6-(3-hydroxybenzylamino)-9-tetrahydrofuran-2-ylpurine (23) were selected, because of the high affinity of their parent compound meta-topolin (mT, 6-(3-hydroxybenzylamino)purine) to cytokinin receptors, as model compounds for studying their perception by the receptors CRE1/AHK4 and AHK3 in a bacterial assay. Both receptors perceived these two derivatives less well than they perceived the parent compound. Subsequently, the susceptibility of several new derivatives to enzyme degradation by cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase was studied. Substitution of tetrahydropyran-2-yl (THP) at the N9 position decreased the turnover rates of all new derivatives to some extent. To provide a practical perspective, the cytotoxicity of the prepared compounds against human diploid fibroblasts (BJ) and the human cancer cell lines K-562 and MCF-7 was also assayed in vitro. The prepared compounds showed none or marginal cytotoxicity compared to the corresponding N9-ribosides. Finally, the pH stability of the two model compounds was assessed in acidic and neutral water solutions (pH 3-7) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Certain 6,9-disubstituted purine derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are provided. These 6,9-disubstituted purine derivatives and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful in compositions for treating mammalian cells, and especially human skin cells, in order to ameliorate the adverse effects of aging, treat skin disease states, treat immunological responses resulting from or associated with inflammation, and the like.
