Drug development against nuclear and chemical threats: development of new prophylactic radioprotective agents. Final annual report, 15 June 1985-14 August 1987

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5468213
This study were is concerned with the preparation of analogs of (WR2721) with modifications in the terminal amine function as potentially new prophylactic radioprotective agents. General methods were developed for the synthesis of WR2721 analogs that possess amide (-C(=0)NHR), thioamide (-C(=S)NHR) and amidine (-C(=NX)NH/sub 2/) terminal residues. In addition, methods were developed for the synthesis of 2-thioxo-3-thiazolidines and 5,6-dihydro-1,2,4,3(4H)-dithiazinethiones as new sulfur masked analogs of (WR1065). During the contract period, a total of twenty-eight (28) target compounds were prepared and submitted for radioprotector screening. No test data is available at this time.
