5-Substituted uracils (NH2 or OH groups in position 5) have been examined theoretically and experimentally as potential building blocks in quadruplex structures. Our high level Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations showed that the tetram

Cyclization of 1,3-bis(ω-bromoalkyl)-5-bromouracil with p-methoxybenzylamine or sodium sulfide led to a series of pyrimidinophanes containing heteroatoms in bridges. An unusual behaviour of the 5-bromouracil ring, namely its contraction into hydantoin units during the cyclization reactions with p-methoxybenzylamine was observed. Sodium sulfide does not affect the 5-bromouracil ring, and no transformation products were observed in the synthesis of pyrimidinophanes with sulfur bridges. A possible reaction mechanism is given.
