Abstract
Efficient microwave-assisted chemical processes were applied to the synthesis of an array of novel N-(4-methoxyphenylamino)-2-methyl benzo-, pyrido- or pyrazino-thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-amine derivatives. These heteroaromatic systems were envisioned as potent bioisosteric analogues of MPC-6827, an anticancer agent previously developed until phase II clinical studies. A brief evaluation and comparison of their antiproliferative activity on HT-29 and Caco-2, two human colorectal cancer cell lines, were also reported. At the tested concentrations (5 and 10 µM), thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-amines 4a and 4c exhibited an inhibitory effect similar to MPC-6827 on human colorectal cancer cell proliferation.
