A number of homologous 2,4-diaminocycloalka[g]pteridines varying in ring size from 5 to 15 were prepared by (a) condensation of aminomalononitrile tosylate with alpha-oximinocycloalkanones, deoxygenation of the resulting 2-amino-3-cyanocycloalka[b]pyrazine 1-oxides, and guanidine cyclization; (b) guanidine cyclization of the above pyrazine 1-oxides to give 2,4-diaminocycloalka[g]pteridine 8-oxides, followed by deoxygenation; or (c) condensation of 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine with a cycloalka-1,2-dione (for the cyclohepta- and cycloocta[g]pteridines only). These compounds were examined for their activity as dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors against Lactobacillus casei, rat liver, L1210, and Trypanosoma cruzi. Activity was found to depend upon ring size, with the greatest activity exhibited by the cyclododeca derivatives 31.
