Seven novel 2,4-diamino-5-deaza-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-g]pteridine derivatives 3-9 with different benzyl and a benzoyl substitution at the N7 position were designed and synthesized, as classical and nonclassical, partially restricted, linear tricyclic 5-deaza antifolates. The purpose was to investigate the effect of conformational restriction of the C6-C9 (τ1) and C9-N10 (τ2) bonds via an ethyl bridge from the N10 to the C7 position of 5-deaza methotrexate (MTX) on the inhibitory potency against dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) from different sources and on antitumor activity. The synthetic methodology for most of the target compounds was a concise five-step total synthesis to construct the tricyclic nucleus, 2,4-diamino-5-deaza-7H-6,7,8,9tetrahydropyrido[3,4-g]pteridine (23), followed by regioselective alkylation of the N7 nitrogen. Biological results indicated that this partial conformational modification for the classical analogue N-[4-[(2,4-diamino-5-deaza-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[3, 4-g]pteridin-7-yl)methyl]benzoyl]-L-glutamic acid 3 was detrimental to DHFR inhibitory activity as well as to antitumor activity compared to MTX or 5-deaza MTX. However, the classical analogue 3 was a better substrate for folypolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS) than MTX. These results show that a classical 5-deaza folate partially restricted via a bridge between the N10 and C7 positions retains FPGS substrate activity and that the antitumor activity of classical tricyclic analogues such as 3 would be influenced by FPGS levels in tumor systems. Interestingly, the nonclassical analogues 4-9 showed moderate to good selectivity against DHFR from pathogenic microbes compared to recombinant human DHFR. These results support the idea that removal of the 5-methyl group of piritrexim along with restriction of τ1 and τ2 can translate into selectivity for DHFR from pathogens.
