Synthesis, ADMET prediction and reverse screening study of 3,4,5-trimethoxy phenyl ring pendant sulfur-containing cyanopyrimidine derivatives as promising apoptosis inducing anticancer agents.

Cancer remains considered as one of the leading global health problems either due to meagre and suboptimal therapeutic response of chemotherapeutic agents or due to the emergence of spontaneous complex multidrug resistance in cancer cells. This created a persistent need for the development of new anticancer agents. Enthralled by the high success rate for natural product-based drug discovery and current research scenario, we synthesized a new series of 3,4,5-trimethoxy phenyl ring pendant sulfur-containingcyanopyrimidine derivatives clubbed with different amines intending to search an anticancer lead compound.
