A phthalimidoalkyl radical reacts with pyrazine‐2,3‐dicarbonitrile ( 1 ) to give mono‐ and diphthalimido‐alkylpyrazine‐2,3‐dicarbonitriles 4 and 5 . A similar reaction with 1,3‐dimethyllumazine ( 2 ) gave only monophthalimidoalkyl‐1,3‐dimethyllumazines 6 or 7 . Hydrazine degradation of 7‐(3′‐phthalimido)propyl‐1,3‐dimethyllumazine ( 6c ) gave a 7‐(3′‐amino)propyl derivative 8 but 7‐phthalimidomethyl‐1,3‐dimethyllumazine ( 6a ) gave only 1,3‐dimethyllumazine ( 2 ). Thus the phthalimidomethyl group can be used as a protection group of the pteridine nucleus.
