Abstract
A new series of quinazolinone derivatives bearing pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazole, or pyran moieties were synthesized for the purpose of anticancer cell line evaluation. Synthesis of these derivatives was achieved by the reaction of the ketone 2 with the appropriate aldehydes in the presence of either ethylcyanoacetate or malononitrile and ammonium acetate in one‐pot reaction. Chalcones 6 reacted also with hydrazine hydrate to give the corresponding pyrazolines 7 and reacted with urea or thiourea to give the 2‐oxopyrimidines or the 2‐thioxopyrimidines 8, respectively. Evaluation of some representative examples of the newly synthesized compounds against cancer cell lines showed promising activity as anticancer agents.
