In this study, several novel thiopyrimidine‐5‐carbonitrile derivatives were synthesized and antitumor activity was investigated. Among them, N‐(4‐bromophenyl)‐2‐cyanoacetyl hydrazine‐1‐carbothioamide 6 revealed that the most potent cytotoxic activity against all tested cell lines, that it is why; it was subjected to in vitro kinase inhibitory assay. Molecular docking simulation was done to verify the binding mode towards VEGFR‐2 and afforded clear evidence on the observed anticancer behavior. Prediction of ADME properties and QSAR study of compounds was carried out, respectively.
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.
