The synthesis of a series of polymethylene chain‐bridged aminochloropyrimidines as potential DNA intercalators is described. N,N'‐Bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,3‐diaminopropane (3), N,N'‐bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,4‐diaminobutane (4), N,N'‐bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,6‐diaminohexane (5), N,N'‐bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,8‐diaminooctane (6), N,N'‐bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,10‐diaminodecane (7), and N,N'‐bis(2‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐pyrimidyl)‐1,12‐diaminododecane (8) were synthesized from 2‐amino‐4,6‐dichloropyrimidine (1) and 1,3‐diaminopropane, 1,4‐diaminobutane, 1,6‐diaminohexane, 1,8‐diaminooctane, 1,10‐diaminodecane, and 1,12‐diaminododecane, respectively. The spectral data and other physical properties of the new compounds are discussed.
