Abstract

Pyrimidine, having two nitrogen atoms, looks like pyridine and benzene. In nature, pyrimidine is present in different forms, such as the bases of DNA and RNA. Due to its structure, various kinds of biological activity have been observed. The substituted and fused pyrimidine derivatives were chemically synthesized and showed anti-cancer potential against cancer cell lines (SW480, A549, CCRF-CEM, THP-1, HepG2, HCT-116, PC3, Huh-7, CNE-2, MGC-803, and MDA-MB-435). Based on the experimental results, the substituted pyrimidines and fused derivatives showed remarkably enhanced anticancer activity, which may be due to the presence of Cl, F, Br, CH3O, aryl urea, indolyl pyrimidine, thienopyrimidine, benzyl amino pyrimidine and the pyrimidine moiety. In this article, recent anticancer research findings were highlighted
