Product Description
4-Chloro-6-ethyl-2-methylpyrimidine (CAS 89966-72-3) is a pyrimidine derivative with the molecular formula C7H9ClN2 and a molecular weight of 156.61 g/mol. It features a pyrimidine ring with chlorine at the 4-position, an ethyl group at the 6-position, and a methyl group at the 2-position. This liquid or low-melting solid is a synthetic intermediate used in the preparation of various pharmaceutical compounds, including kinase inhibitors, antiviral agents, and other bioactive molecules. The chlorine atom enables nucleophilic aromatic substitution to introduce diverse substituents.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
As a synthetic building block, this compound does not have a defined biological target. The chlorinated alkylpyrimidine scaffold is commonly found in drugs targeting kinases, GPCRs, and ion channels. The chlorine allows for the introduction of amine, alkoxy, or other nucleophilic groups, while the ethyl and methyl groups contribute to lipophilicity and steric effects. The compound is used to generate libraries of pyrimidine-based compounds with potential therapeutic applications.
ln Vitro
No direct in vitro biological activity data have been reported for this intermediate. Pyrimidine derivatives with similar substitution patterns have demonstrated activity against various kinases (e.g., CDK, PI3K) with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. The compound itself is not tested in bioassays; rather, it is evaluated for chemical purity and reactivity. The final products derived from this intermediate are screened for biological activity in appropriate assays.
ln Vivo
No in vivo pharmacological data exist for this compound. As an intermediate, it is not intended for administration. Its biological effects would be realized only after conversion to drug candidates. In animal models, related pyrimidine kinase inhibitors have shown oral efficacy in tumor xenografts and inflammatory models at doses of 3–30 mg/kg, but these data do not apply to the parent intermediate.
Enzyme Assay
For pyrimidine-based enzyme assays, the final derivatives are incubated with recombinant kinases in kinase buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Triton X-100) with ATP and a peptide substrate. After incubation at 30°C for 30–60 minutes, phosphorylation is detected using a luminescent kinase assay (e.g., ADP-Glo) or by ELISA with anti-phospho antibodies. IC50 values are derived from 8-point dose-response curves in duplicate.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for pyrimidine derivatives are performed by culturing cancer or immune cell lines (e.g., HCT116, Jurkat) in RPMI-1640 with 10% FBS. Cells are treated with serial dilutions of test compounds (0.1 nM to 10 µM) for 48–72 hours, and viability is measured using CellTiter-Glo. For mechanistic studies, apoptosis markers (caspase-3/7) and cell cycle distribution are assessed by flow cytometry. EC50 values are calculated using nonlinear regression, with appropriate positive controls.
Animal Protocol
In vivo evaluation of pyrimidine drug candidates typically involves oral administration to mice bearing tumor xenografts or with induced inflammation. Doses range from 3 to 50 mg/kg daily. Tumor volume or disease scores are recorded over 14–21 days. Plasma is collected for PK analysis, and tumors or target tissues are harvested for PD biomarker assessment (e.g., phosphorylated kinase levels). Standard protocols include vehicle controls and a reference compound.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of this intermediate are not documented. Based on its molecular weight and LogP (estimated ~2.3), it is expected to be moderately lipophilic. The chlorine and alkyl groups confer metabolic stability. After derivatization, final compounds may show good oral bioavailability. The intermediate should be stored at room temperature in a dry, airtight container, protected from light.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No toxicological data are available. As a chlorinated pyrimidine, handle with standard precautions: fume hood, gloves, and goggles. The compound may cause skin irritation. If used in drug development, a full toxicology assessment would be required for the final drug substance, not for this intermediate.
Additional Infomation
This compound is a research chemical for synthetic purposes and is not an approved drug. It has no clinical trial history. Its primary value is as a building block for the synthesis of pyrimidine-based pharmaceuticals, particularly kinase inhibitors and antiviral agents. Typical purity is ≥95% by HPLC. Storage at room temperature in a tightly sealed container is recommended.
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.
