Design and Synthesis of some new 2,4,6-trisubstituted quinazoline EGFR inhibitors as targeted anticancer agents.

The present study describes the synthesis of 6-bromo-2-(pyridin-3-yl)-4-substituted quinazolines starting from 4-chloro derivative VI via the reaction with either phenolic compounds to obtain VIIa-f, IXa-d, 2-amino-6-(un)substituted benzothiazole to produce VIIIa-c or hydrazine hydrate to give X. Reaction of the hydrazino functionality of X with appropriate acid anhydride, acid chloride or aldehyde affords XIa-c, XIIa-c and XIVa-i, respectively. The target compounds were screened for their efficacy as EGFR inhibitors compared to gefitinib.

Design and synthesis of novel PARP-1 inhibitors based on pyridopyridazinone scaffold.

Various pyridopyridazinone derivatives were designed as Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitors. The pyridopyridazinone scaffold was used as an isostere of the phthalazine nucleus of the lead compound Olaparib in addition to some modifications in the tail part of the molecule. Preliminary biological evaluation indicated that most compounds possessed inhibitory potencies comparable to Olaparib in nanomolar level.
