A series of new 1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-thiol derivatives (scaffold A) as VEGFR-2 inhibitors has been designed and synthesized. Compounds 3a, 3b, 3e and 4b have been selected for in vitro anticancer screening by the National Cancer Institute. Compound 3e showed remarkable anticancer activity against most of the cell lines tested, where a complete cell death against leukemia, non-small cell lung cancer, colon, CNS, melanoma, and breast cancer cell lines was observed. In vitro five dose tests showed that compound 3e had high activity against most of the tested cell lines with GI50 ranging from 19 to 100 μM and selectivity ratios ranging between 0.75 and 1.71 at the GI50 level. VEGFR-2-kinase was tested against 3a, 3b, 3e, 4b and sorafenib was used as a reference. Compounds 3a and 3e were the most potent analogues with IC50 values of 386.4 nM and 198.7 nM against VEGFR-2, respectively, in comparison to sorafenib (IC50 = 0.17 nM). The results of the docking study showed a good fitting of the new compounds to the active site of VEGFR-2 with binding free energies in the range of ?9.80 to ?11.25 kcal/mol compared to ?12.12 kcal/mol for sorafenib. Compounds 4a-e with the hydroxyimino group had a higher affinity to VEGFR-2 than their parent derivatives 3a-e.

Thiouracil and thiocytosine are important heterocyclic pharmacophores having pharmacological diversity. Antitumor and antiviral activity is commonly associated with thiouracil and thiocytosine derivatives, which are well known fragments for adenosine receptor affinity with many associated pharmacological properties. In this respect, 33 novel compounds have been synthesized in two groups: 24 thiouracil derivatives (4a-x) and 9 thiocytosine derivatives (5a-i). Antitumor activity of all the compounds was determined in the U87 MG glioblastoma cell line. Compound 5e showed an anti-proliferative IC50 of 1.56 μM, which is slightly higher activity than cisplatin (1.67 μM). The 11 most active compounds showed no signficant binding to adenosine A1, A2A or A2B receptors at 1 μM. Brain tumors express high amounts of phosphodiesterases. Compounds were tested for PDE4 inhibition, and 5e and 5f showed the best potency (5e: 3.42 μM; 5f: 0.97 μM). Remakably, those compounds were also the most active against U87MG. However, the compounds lacked a cytotoxic effect on the HEK293 healthy cell line, which encourages further investigation.
