Synthesis, QSAR modeling, and molecular docking of novel fused 7-deazaxanthine derivatives as adenosine A2A receptor antagonists.

Predictive QSAR models for the search of new adenosine A2A receptor antagonists were developed by using OCHEM platform. The predictive ability of the regression models has coefficient of determination q2  = 0.65-0.71 with cross-validation and independent test set. The inhibition activities of novel fused 7-deazaxanthine compounds were predicted by the developed QSAR models. A preparative method for the synthesis of pyrimido[5',4':4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepine derivatives was developed, and 11 new adenosine A2A receptor antagonists were obtained. Preliminary investigations into the toxicology of fused 7-deazaxanthine compounds toward commonly used model organism to assess toxicity invertebrate cladoceran D. magna were also described.
