A series of novel cycloalkylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidinone derivatives have been conveniently synthesized via three steps including G-3CR, heterocyclization, and alkylation reactions as a part of our ongoing search for new bioactive molecules. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their potential tumor cell growth inhibitory activity by standard MTT assay. The preliminary results show that compound 6b exhibited better inhibitory activities against HepG2, MCF-7, and BCG-823 cell lines compared to the control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
