Background And Purpose: Pyridopyrimidine and its derivatives have a variety of chemical and biological significances. Thiazole-containing compounds have also been reported to have a wide range of biological activities. Due to the valuable cytotoxic effects of both thiazole and pyridopyrimidinone derivatives, a series of pyridopyrimidinone-thiazole hybrids were synthesized in the present study.

In this study, a series of novel quinazolinone derivatives substituted with benzimidazole were synthesized in two parts. In the first part 2 - phenyl - 1 - benzimidazol - 6 - amine () was synthesized from the reaction of 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine and benzoic acid.

In this study, a series of novel quinazolinone derivatives with substituted quinoxalindione were synthesized in two parts. In the first part, 6-(4-amino-3-methylphenoxy)quinoxaline-2,3(1H,4H)-dione was prepared from para-amino -m-crozol in 5 steps.

Isatin-based derivatives are promising compounds as antiepileptic agents. In this study a new series of isatin-containing derivatives were synthesized via the imine formation between isatin and -aminobenzoic acid.

Thiazole-containing compounds have also many biological effects including antitumor, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities. Due to significant cytotoxic effects of both quinazoline and thiazole derivatives, in this work a group of quinazolinone-thiazol hybrids were prepared and their cytotoxic effects on three cell lines were evaluated using MTT assay.

Thiazole group-containing compounds have been also reported to have a wide range of biological activities such as antitumor, anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antibacterial effects. Due to valuable cytotoxic effects of both thiazole groups and quinazoline derivatives, in this study a series of quinazolinone-thiazole hybrids were synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic effects on three cell lines including MCF-7, HT-29, and PC-3.

One of the most important heterocycles in medicinal chemistry are quinazolines possessing wide spectrum of biological properties like antibacterial, antifungal, anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, anticancer and analgesic activities. This skeleton is an important pharmacophore considered as a privileged structure.

Anthranilic acid was condensed with chloro acylchloride followed by dehydration to form the benzoxazinone intermediate; subsequent addition of an amine provided the fused quinazolinones. Deoxyvasicinone which was previously synthesized by a multi step complex reactions was prepared in three steps using the following procedure: Log P values of the compounds were measured using the shake flask method in octanol/water solvent system.
