Antitumor actions of imidazolyl-(4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-acetamides against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma.

Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer after lung cancer and the fifth most common cause of cancer death. Several structural classes of compounds were discovered against tumor, but many of the existing antitumor agents exhibit severe side effects. Hence there is a need to identify a novel chemical entity having a broad range of therapeutic activity with fewer side effects.

Synthesis, antitubercular and anticancer activities of substituted furyl-quinazolin-3(4H)-ones.

Some novel substituted-3-{[(1E)-(substituted-2-furyl)-methylene]amino}quinazolin-4(3H)-one (5, 6, 7) a-f were synthesized by a multi-step process. These synthesized compounds are characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and evaluated for their antitubercular and anticancer activities. Biological activity indicated that some of the title compounds are potent antitubercular and anticancer agents.

Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of some novel substituted 2-imidazolyl-N-(4-oxo-quinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-acetamides.

Several substituted-quinazolin-3(4H)-ones 8-11ad were synthesized by condensation of 2-chloro-N-(4-oxo-substituted-quinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-acetamides with various substituted imidazoles through one pot reaction. Elemental analysis, IR, (1)H-NMR and mass spectral data confirmed the structure of the newly synthesized compounds. Synthesized quinazolin-4-one derivatives were investigated for their antitubercular, antibacterial and antifungal activities.
