Octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidine

CAS: 57672-23-8

Octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidine is a cyclic diamine that is catalysed by the enzyme oxidase. In this process, octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidine is oxidized to form the metabolite hexahydropyrimidine. The reaction requires hydrogen peroxide as a co-substrate. Octahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrimidine can also be used as a precursor for spermine and spermidine production. This compound has an aminoaldehyde group at one end of the molecule and a cyclopentane ring at the other end. It can be synthesized from diamines and cyclopentane derivatives in two steps involving dehydrogenation followed by oxidation.
