Abstract
Unprecedented trisubstituted tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-diones were easily synthesized in two steps involving Boc-amide protection and controlled ring opening, from perhydropyrazino[1,2-f ]pyrimidine-3,6,8-triones. These bicyclic derivatives were prepared by reaction of 2-oxopiperazines derived from dipeptides with isocyanates, followed by cyclization. The monocyclic pyrimidinone derivatives were further elaborated to potential CCK ligands that have contributed to a better understanding of the structural requirements for efficient binding at the CCK1 receptor.
Key words

17 Compounds 3 , 4 , and 5 were synthesized by reductive amination of β-keto esters derived from Z-Xaa-Gly dipeptides (Xaa = Gly, Ala, and Phe, respectively). Compounds 4 and 5 were obtained as separable mixtures of diastereoisomers due to the induction by the Ala and Phe stereogenic centers. However, analogue 3 was obtained as racemic due to the achiral nature of the starting β-keto ester: Patiño-Molina R.
