Reaction of 3',5'-di-O-benzoyl-6-methyl-2'-deoxyuridine (IIa) with elementary bromine or iodine afforded 5-halogeno derivatives IIc and IId which on methanolysis gave 5-bromo-6-methyl-2'-deoxyurine (Ic) and 5-iodo-6-methyl-2'-deoxyurine (Id), respectively. The CD spectra of Ic, Id and 6-methyl-2'-deoxyuridine (Ia) are compared and discussed with regard to determination of the nucleoside conformation. Unlike 5-bromo- and 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine, the 6-methyl derivatives Ic and Id exhibit neither antibacterial nor antiviral activity. Nor do they exert any antimetabolic effect on the de novo DNA synthesis in primary rabbit kidney cells.

The paper describes syntheses of 4,9-dihydro-6-methoxy-3-methyl-4-oxo-1H(2H)-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (Ia), its 1-methyl derivative (Ic), 1,9-dimethyl derivative (Ie), 2-methyl derivative (IIa), and 2,9-dimethyl derivative (IIc). Demethylation of these compounds with hydrobromic acid afforded 4,9-dihydro-6-hydroxy-3-methyl-4-oxo-1H(2H)-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (Ib), its 1-methyl derivative (Id), 1,9-dimethyl derivative (If), 2-methyl derivative (IIb), and 2,9-dimethyl derivative (IId) respectively. 4,9-Dihydro-6-hydroxy-3,9-dimethyl-4-oxo-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline (Ig) was prepared by demethylation of Ie and/or IIc with pyridine hydrochloride. The compounds prepared were tested for antiviral activity in vivo in mice against influenza virus A2-Hongkong and encephalomyocarditis virus.
