Pyridazinones: A versatile scaffold in the development of potential target‐based novel anticancer agents

Abstract

AbstractPyridazinones are important nitrogen‐rich heterocyclic core that has been driving the substantial medicinal interest due to their wide range of biological activities. This privileged scaffold forms a central core in numerous potent compounds, which results in the development of novel anticancer drugs with fruitful biological activities. The current review article summarizes the progressive development of novel pyridazinone derivatives that are targets for numerous receptors such as C‐met kinase inhibitors, PARP inhibitors, Tubulin polymerization inhibitors, Dihydro folate reductase inhibitors, B‐Raf inhibitors, Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, FER tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and fibroblast growth factors receptors. It features the various simple techniques for the synthesis of pyridazinones and also highlights the mechanistic insights into the anticancer properties of pyridazinone derivatives.
