The syntheses of novel tricyclic pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine analogues of O(6)-methylguanine and S(6)-methylthioguanine are described. The crystal structures and pK(a) values of these analogues are reported. In a standard substrate assay with the human repair protein O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) only the oxygen-containing analogue displayed activity.
