Synthesis and antitumor activity of new sulfonamide derivatives of thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidines.

New series of sulfonamide derivatives of [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine were synthesized and investigated as antitumor agents. Some of the newly prepared compounds were tested for their in vitro and in vivo antitumor activities. Preliminary biological studies revealed that compounds 4c, 4f, and 4j exhibited the highest affinity to DNA, while compounds 4h,i, 6a-c, 8 and 12-14 exhibited moderate activity.
