New applications of Imidazotetrazinone prodrugs. Synthesis and mechanistic investigation of novel imidazotetrazinones as prodrugs of aziridines and as traceless carriers for drug delivery to the central nervous system.

New imidazotetrazinones have been synthesised that possess features in their structures to release aziridinium ions upon ring opening. Unstable 2-aminoethylisocyanates were required in this preparation, which were synthesized with BOC-protection of the amino group to counteract the reactivity of...
