Abstract

2-Anilino-4-(benzimidazol-2-yl)-pyrimidines, synthesized by reaction of a readily available benzimidazole-substituted enaminone with suitable arylguanidines, were shown to inhibit four cancer-related protein kinases (Aurora B, PLK1, FAK, and VEGF-R2). The most potent derivative exhibited antiproliferative activity for several cancer cell lines of the NCI in vitro cell line panel in submicromolar concentrations. Both the anilinopyrimidine structure and the substitution pattern at the aniline ring appear to be important for the protein kinase inhibitory activity.
