Treatment of 6-chloro-5-formyluracils with 2-benzylpyridines in dimethylformamide gave the corresponding 2H-pyridopyridopyrimidine-2,4(3H)diones which are a bent type of 5-deazaflavin.Similarly, treatment of 6-chloro-5-formyl-3-methyluracil with 2-aminopyridine gave a 6-azalog of the above bent 5-deazaflavin, 2H-pyridopyrimidopyrimidine-2,4(3H)dione.These "bent 5-deazaflavins" showed oxidizing ability toward benzyl alcohol, cyclohexanol and benzylamine giving the corresponding carbonyl compounds.
