Pyrimidine compounds (Formula I), or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, solvates, crystal forms and individual diastereomers, and pharmaceutical compositions including the same, which are inhibitors of tyrosine kinase enzymes, and as such are useful in the prophylaxis and treatment of protein tyrosine kinase-associated disorders, such as immune diseases, hyperproliferative disorders and other diseases in which inappropriate protein kinase action is believed to play a role, such as cancer, angiogensis, atheroscelerosis, graft rejection, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.

Src kinase inhibitor compounds

O-aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynyl-macrolides having

O-Aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynyl-macrolides of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-3' and/or C-4' of the cyclohexyl ring. These macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases and/or the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and/or related afflictions, diseases and illnesses.

O-Heteroaryl, O-alkylheteroaryl, O-alkenylheteroaryl and O-alkynylheteroaryl-macrolides of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-3' and/or C-4' of the cyclohexyl ring. These macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and/or related afflictions, diseases and illnesses.

O-heteroaryl, O-alkylheteroaryl, O-alkenylheteroaryl and

Imidazolidyl macrolides of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-3' and/or C-4' of the cyclohexyl ring. These macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and/or related afflictions, diseases and illnesses.

Imidazolidyl macrolides having immunosuppressive activity

O-Heteroaryl, O-alkylheteroaryl, O-alkenylheteroaryl and O-alkynylheteroarylrapamycin derivatives of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-42 and/or C-31. These compounds are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and diseases of inflammation, infectious diseases, the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and the treatment of solid tumors.

O-Aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynylrapamycin derivatives of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-42 and/or C-31. These compounds are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and diseases of inflammation, infectious diseases, the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and the treatment of solid tumors.

O-aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynylrapamycin derivatives

O-Heteroaryl, O-alkylheteroaryl, O-alkenylheteroaryl and O-alkynylheteroarylmacrolides of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-3' and/or C-4' of the cyclohexyl ring. These macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants and/or related afflictions, diseases and illnesses.

D-heteroaryl, O-alkylheteroaryl, O-alkenylheteroaryl and

O-Aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynyl-macrolides of the general structural Formula I: ##STR1## have been prepared from suitable precursors by alkylation and/or arylation at C-3' and/or C-4' of the cyclohexyl ring. These macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in a mammalian host for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases and/or the prevention of rejection of foreign organ transplants. In addition, these macrolide immunosuppressants are useful in the topical treatment of inflammatory and hyperproliferative skin diseases and cutaneous manifestations of immunologically-mediated illnesses. Also, these macrolides are useful in the treatment of reversible obstructive airways disease, particularly asthma; as hair revitalizing agents, especially in the treatment of male pattern alopecia or alopecia senilis; in the reversal of multidrug resistance of tumor cells; in treatment of inflammation of mucosa and blood vessels, gastric ulcers, vascular damage, ischemic bowel disease, necrotizing enterocolitis, intestinal lesions associated with thermal burns; in the treatment of cytomegalovirus infection; and in the treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and Basedow's disease.

O-aryl, O-alkyl, O-alkenyl and O-alkynylmacrolides having

New optically active intermediates and processes thereto are provided for use in synthesizing therapeutically active prostaglandins of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; from a compound of the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is as above and R.sup.2 is hydrogen or a carboxy blocking group convertible to an acid by hydrolysis.
