Degradation of terbutylazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-terbutylamino-1,3,5-triazine), deisopropyl atrazine (2-amino-4-chloro-6-ethylamino-1,3,5-triazine), and chlorinated dimethoxy triazine (2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine) by zero valent iron and electrochemical reduction.

To help elucidate the mechanism of dechlorination of chlorinated triazines via metallic iron, terbutylazine (TBA: 2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-terbutylamino-1,3,5-triazine), deisopropyl atrazine (DIA: 2-amino-4-chloro-6-ethylamino-1,3,5-triazine), and chlorinated dimethoxy triazine (CDMT: 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine) were degraded via zero valent iron under controlled pH conditions. The lower the solution pH the faster the degradation, with surface area normalized pseudo first order rate constants ranging from 2 (+/- 1)x10(-3) min(-1) m(-2) l for TBA at pH 2.0 to 4 (+/- 2)x10(-5) min(-1) m(-2) l for CDMT at pH 4.0. Hydrogenolysis (dechlorinated) products were observed for TBA and CDMT. Electrochemical reduction on mercury showed similar behavior for all of the triazines studied; the initial product of CDMT bulk electrolysis was the dechlorinated compound. The iron results are consistent with a mechanism involving the addition of surface hydrogen to the surface associated triazine.

Synthesis and anti-inflammatory evaluation of 3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazines, 3-alkoxy-1,2,4-triazines, and 3-aryloxy-1,2,4-triazines.

To develop nonacidic, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents without GI complications, a series of asymmetric triazines was synthesized and evaluated for anti-inflammatory efficacy in the carrageenan-induced pedal edema assay. Toxicity was estimated by determination of approximate LD50 values in mice. Twenty-five compounds possessed activity comparable to the standard, indomethacin. Thirteen of the 25 compounds were selected for dose-response evaluation in the carrageenan assay based on their relative toxicity and anti-inflammatory activity. Neurotoxicity of the 13 triazines was estimated by determination of NTD50 values in mice. Five of the 13 compounds tested in the dose-response assay were active in terms of anti-inflammatory efficacy (ED50 values) and lack of overt neurotoxicity (NTD50 values) when compared to indomethacin. To determine the effect of these five developmental triazines on chronic inflammation, they were evaluated in the adjuvant-induced polyarthritis assay. One was comparable to indomethacin in reducing adjuvant-induced inflammation in this assay.

Reaction of 2,4,6-triazido-1,3,5-triazine with triphenylphosphane. syntheses and characterization of the novel 2-triphenylphosphanimino-4-azidotetrazolo[5,1-a]-[1,3,5]triazine and 2,4,6,-tris(triphenylphosphanimino)-1,3,5-triazine.

2-Triphenylphosphanimino-4-azidotetrazolo[5,1-a]-[1,3,5]triazine (6) was obtained by reaction of 2,4,6-triazido-1,3,5-triazine (1) with 1 equiv of triphenylphosphane. Raman and X-ray data revealed that only one azide group formed a tetrazole ring system whereas the second azide group did not undergo ring closure. To investigate the equilibrium between the tetrazole isomer and the open-chain azide structure for these and related species, (31)P NMR studies were carried out. The obtained spectra displayed an equilibrium between the tetrazole and the open-chain azide isomers. 2,4,6-Tris(triphenylphosphanimino)-1,3,5-triazine (4) was prepared by treatment of 1 with 3 equiv of triphenylphosphane, and its X-ray structure is discussed. On the basis of PM3 semiempirical and density functional calculations, the reaction of 1 with triphenylphosphane was studied. The thermodynamics of different isomerization reactions and the activation barriers to cyclization were estimated.

Design and synthesis of a novel family of triazine-based inhibitors of sorbitol dehydrogenase with oral activity: 1-[4-[3R,5S-dimethyl-4-(4-methyl-[1,3,5]triazin-2-yl)-piperazin-1-yl]-[1,3,5]triazin-2-yl]-(R) ethanol.

Two new templates, (R) 2-hydroxyethyl-pyridine and (R) 2-hydroxyethyl-triazine, were used to design novel sorbitol dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDIs). The design concept included spawning of these templates to function as effective ligands to the catalytic zinc within the enzyme through incorporation of optimally substituted piperazino-triazine side chains so as to accommodate the active site in the enzyme for efficient binding. This strategy resulted in orally active SDIs, which penetrate key tissues, for example, sciatic nerve of chronically diabetic rats. The latter template led to the design of the title inhibitor, 33, which normalized the elevated sciatic nerve fructose by 96% at an oral dose of 10mg/kg.

[Studies on as-triazine derivatives. XVIII. Synthesis of 5,6-diaryl-1,2,4-triazine derivatives as blood platelet aggregation inhibitors].

5,6-Diphenyl-, 3,5-diphenyl-, and 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (as-triazine) derivatives were evaluated for inhibitory activity towards arachidonic acid-induced aggregation of rabbit blood platelet in vitro. Among the isomers, 5,6-diphenyl-as-triazine derivatives were active, therefore a phenyl substituent on the as-triazine ring at the 5- and 6-position was essential for the inhibitory activity. Thus, various 3-substituted 5,6-diaryl-as-triazines were synthesized by the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5,6-diaryl-3-methylsulfonyl-as-triazines with O,N,C-nucleophiles. In the case of as-triazines having different aryl groups at the 5- and 6-positions, the compounds were prepared by the step-wise addition reaction of Grignard reagents with 3-methylthio-as-triazine. Among these compounds, ethyl 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-phenyl-as-triazine-3-acetate (24a) and ethyl 5,6-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-as-triazine-3-acetate (24f) showed the most potent inhibitory activity, which was almost equal to the activity of anitrazafen.

Synthesis and antitumor activity of certain 3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazines related to formycin prepared via ring closure of a 1,2,4-triazine precursor.

Several 3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazines related to formycin were prepared and tested for their antitumor activity in cell culture. Dehydrative coupling of 3-amino-6-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (5) with 3,4,6-tri-O-benzoyl-2,5-anhydro-D-allonic acid (6a) and further ring closure of the reaction product (7) provided 6-amino-3-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4- f]-1,2,4-triazin-8(7H)-one (8). Condensation of 5 with 3,4,6-tri-O-benzoyl-2,5-anhydro-D-allonic acid chloride (6b), followed by ring annulation, also gave 8 in good yield. Debenzoylation of 8 furnished the guanosine analogue 6-amino-3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazin -8(7H)-one (4b). Thiation of 8 with P2S5, followed by debenzoylation of the thiated product (11a), afforded 6-amino-3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazin -8(7H)- thione (11b). Methylation of the sodium salt of 11a gave the 8-methylthio derivative (10), which on ammonolysis furnished 6,8-diamino-3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazine (9). Diazotization of 10 with tert-butyl nitrite (TBN) and SbCl3 in 1,2-dichloroethane gave the corresponding 6-chloro derivative (12a). Reaction of 10 with TBN in THF in the absence of a halogen source gave 8-(methylthio)-3-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-1,2,4- triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazine (12b). Ammonolysis of 12b gave the azaformycin A analogue 8-amino-3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4- triazolo[3,4-f]-1,2,4-triazine (3), which on deamination afforded 3-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4- f]-1,2,4-triazin-8(7H)-one (4a). The azaformycin A analogue (3) showed pronounced inhibitory effects against L1210, WIL2, and CCRF-CEM cell lines with ID50 values ranging from 5.0 to 7.3 microM.

Characterization of Chloroplasts Isolated from Triazine-Susceptible and Triazine-Resistant Biotypes of Brassica campestris L.

Chloroplasts isolated from triazine-susceptible and triazine-resistant biotypes of Brassica campestris L. were analyzed for lipid composition, ultrastructure, and relative quantum requirements of photosynthesis. In general, phospholipids, but not glycolipids in chloroplasts from the triazine-resistant biotype had a higher linolenic acid concentration and lower levels of oleic and linoleic fatty acids, than chloroplasts from triazine-susceptible plants. Chloroplasts from the triazine-resistant biotype had a 1.6-fold higher concentration of t-Delta3-hexadecenoic acid with a concomitantly lower palmitic acid concentration in phosphatidylglycerol. Phosphatidylglycerol previously has been hypothesized to be a boundary lipid for photosystem II. Chloroplasts from the triazine-resistant biotype had a lower chlorophyll a/b ratio and exhibited increased grana stacking. Light-saturation curves revealed that the relative quantum requirement for whole chain electron transport at limiting light intensities was lower for the susceptible biotype than for the triazine-resistant biotype. Although the level of the chlorophyll a/b light-harvesting complex associated with photosystem II was greater in resistant biotypes, the increased levels of the light-harvesting complex did not increase the photosynthetic efficiency enough to overcome the rate limitation that is inherited concomitantly with the modification of the Striazine binding site.

Imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazine nucleosides. Synthesis and antiviral activity of the N-bridgehead guanine, guanosine, and guanosine monophosphate analogues of imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazine.

The first chemical synthesis of 2-aminoimidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazin-4-one (8), the corresponding nucleoside and nucleotide, and certain related derivatives of a new class of purine analogues containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom is described. Condensation of 2-amino-4-chloro-6-hydroxy-s-triazine (2) with aminoacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal followed by the ring annulation gave the guanine analogue 8. A similar ring annulation of 4-(2,2-dimethoxyethylamino)-s-triazine-2,6-dione (5) gave imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazine-4,6-dione (9). Direct glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl derivative of 8 with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose in the presence of stannic chloride, followed by debenzoylation, gave the guanosine analogue 2-amino-8-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazin-4-one (12b), which on deamination gave the xanthosine analogue 13. Phosphorylation of 12b gave 2-amino-8-(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazo[1,2-a]-s-triazin-4-one 5'-monophosphate (II). The anomeric configuration has been determined unequivocally by using NMR of the 2',3'-O-isopropylidene derivate 10 and the site of ribosylation has been established by using 13C NMR spectroscopy. These compounds were tested against type 1 herpes, type 13 rhino, and type 3 parainfluenza viruses in tissue culture. Moderate rhinovirus activity was observed for several compounds at nontoxic dosage levels.

Metabolism of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine through initial reduction to hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine followed by denitration in Clostridium bifermentans HAW-1.

A fast hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX)-degrading [28.1 micromol h(-1) g (dry weight) cells(-1); biomass, 0.16 g (dry weight) cells(-1)] and strictly anaerobic bacterial strain, HAW-1, was isolated and identified as Clostridium bifermentans using a 16S-rRNA-based method. Based on initial rates, strain HAW-1 transformed RDX to hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX), hexahydro-1,3-dinitroso-5-nitro-1,3,5-triazine (DNX), and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX) with yields of 56, 7.3 and 0.2%, respectively. Complete removal of RDX and its nitroso metabolites produced (%, of total C or N) methanol (MeOH, 23%), formaldehyde (HCHO, 7.4%), carbon dioxide (CO2, 3.0%) and nitrous oxide (N2O, 29.5%) as end products. Under the same conditions, strain HAW-1 transformed MNX separately at a rate of 16.9 micromol h(-1) g (dry weight) cells(-1) and produced DNX (25%) and TNX (0.4%) as transient products. Final MNX transformation products were (%, of total C or N) MeOH (21%), HCHO (2.9%), and N2O (17%). Likewise strain HAW-1 degraded TNX at a rate of 7.5 micromol h(-1) g (dry weight) cells(-1 )to MeOH and HCHO. Furthermore, removal of both RDX and MNX produced nitrite (NO2-) as a transient product, but the nitrite release rate from MNX was quicker than from RDX. Thus, the predominant pathway for RDX degradation is based on initial reduction to MNX followed by denitration and decomposition. The continued sequential reduction to DNX and TNX is only a minor route.

Antimalarial activity of 2-(substituted amino)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazines and N-(chlorophenyl)-N'-[4-(substituted amino)-6-(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]guanidines.

A series of 2-[[(dialkylamino)alkyl]amino]-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazines (III) and N-(4-chlorophenyl)-N'-[4-[[(dialkylamino)alkyl]amino]-6- (trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]guanidines (IV) were prepared from 2,4,6-tris(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine and 2-chloro-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine. Compounds of type III showed modest antimalarial activity while XIa with the camoquin side chain was more potent. Analogues of type IV broadly exhibited modest antimalarial activity.

Synthesis of new pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazines and thiazolo[3,4-d][1,2,4]triazines as immunostimulating agents.

Four pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazines and four thiazolo[3,4-d][1,2,4]triazines were synthesized from trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline and L-thiaproline, respectively. The synthetic route involved formation of hydrazides followed by cyclization with orthoesters. The proliferative response to human lymphocyte mitogen (phytohemagglutinin) revealed significant immunostimulant activity for all test drugs. Furthermore, some triazine derivatives were effective to activate production of free oxygen radical by phagocytes in response to stimulation by opsonized zymosan.

Biodegradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine and its mononitroso derivative hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine by Klebsiella pneumoniae strain SCZ-1 isolated from an anaerobic sludge.

In previous work, we found that an anaerobic sludge efficiently degraded hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), but the role of isolates in the degradation process was unknown. Recently, we isolated a facultatively anaerobic bacterium, identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae strain SCZ-1, using MIDI and the 16S rRNA method from this sludge and employed it to degrade RDX. Strain SCZ-1 degraded RDX to formaldehyde (HCHO), methanol (CH3OH) (12% of total C), carbon dioxide (CO(2)) (72% of total C), and nitrous oxide (N2O) (60% of total N) through intermediary formation of methylenedinitramine (O(2)NNHCH(2)NHNO(2)). Likewise, hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX) was degraded to HCHO, CH3OH, and N2O (16.5%) with a removal rate (0.39 micromol. h(-1). g [dry weight] of cells(-1)) similar to that of RDX (0.41 micromol. h(-1). g [dry weight] of cells(-1)) (biomass, 0.91 g [dry weight] of cells. liter(-1)). These findings suggested the possible involvement of a common initial reaction, possibly denitration, followed by ring cleavage and decomposition in water. The trace amounts of MNX detected during RDX degradation and the trace amounts of hexahydro-1,3-dinitroso-5-nitro-1,3,5-triazine detected during MNX degradation suggested that another minor degradation pathway was also present that reduced -NO2 groups to the corresponding -NO groups.

Identification of hydroxylamino-dinitroso-1,3,5-triazine as a transient intermediate formed during the anaerobic biodegradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine.

The metabolic fate of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) in a mixed culture incubated under methanogenic conditions was studied. Analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) confirmed the loss of RDX and the formation of mono-, di-, and trinitroso-RDX as transient biodegradation intermediates. An additional peak observed in the HPLC chromatograms was identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry as hydroxylamino-dinitroso-1,3,5-triazine. This is the first report identifying hydroxylamino-dinitroso-1,3,5-triazine as a transient intermediate produced during the anaerobic biodegradation of RDX.

Toxicity of the explosive metabolites hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX) and hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX) to the earthworm Eisenia fetida.

Toxicity of hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX) to earthworm was evaluated. Both MNX and TNX had lethal and sublethal effects on earthworms. Exposure to MNX- or TNX-contaminated soil caused a significant concentration-dependent decrease in earthworm survival and growth. The lowest observed lethal concentration (LOLC) for both MNX and TNX was 100 and 200 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight in the sandy loam soil and in the silt loam soil, respectively. No earthworms survived for 14 days in MNX- or TNX-spiked soil at 500 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight. After 7 days exposure, the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC) for earthworm growth was 50 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight for TNX and 100 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight for MNX in both soil types. The LC20 and LC50 for MNX in sandy loam soil were 114 and 262 mgkg(-1) and for TNX, they were 114 and 254 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight, respectively. The corresponding values for MNX and TNX in silt loam soil were 234 and 390 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight, respectively, and 200 and 362 mgkg(-1) soil dry weight, respectively. After 35 days exposure, earthworm growth was reduced 8-39% by TNX in sandy loam soil, whereas TNX only inhibited earthworm growth 5-18% at the same concentration range in silt loam soil. LC20 and LC50 for TNX were slightly lower than for MNX; this indicates that TNX was more toxic than MNX. No significant morphological or developmental abnormalities were observed in earthworms surviving exposure.

Evaluating the bioavailability of explosive metabolites, hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX), in soils using passive sampling devices.

The uptake kinetics of two major RDX (hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane) metabolites, hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine (MNX) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine (TNX), into passive sampling devices (PSDs), and the ability of PSDs to serve as surrogates for evaluating bioavailability of MNX and TNX were investigated in laboratory sand and two soil types. The results indicate that MNX and TNX absorption into PSDs was best fitted with a polynomial curve model: y = ax2 + bx + c (y: amount of MNX or TNX absorbed into PSD; x: incubation time of PSDs in soil), with an excellent correlation coefficient (>0.95) for each type of soil amended with 10 mg/kg MNX or TNX. TNX was more readily absorbed by PSDs than MNX. Soil conditions, especially organic matter content, affected MNX and TNX uptake into PSDs. A relatively good correlation between MNX and TNX uptake into PSDs and uptake into earthworms was obtained in two types of natural soils (a silt loam soil from Nebraska and a sandy loam soil from Texas) and laboratory sand. A linear relationship between PSD uptake and earthworm uptake was observed. The correlation coefficients (r2) were > or = 0.82 for all test soils spiked with MNX or TNX. Organic matter content is one soil factor that affected the ratio of MNX or TNX uptake into earthworms versus uptake into PSDs. These data indicate that C18 PSDs may be used as a surrogate for soil organisms such as earthworms and provide a simple and easy chemical test for assessing the bioavailability of contaminants in soils.
