Abstract
The number of newly synthesized and produced organic chemicals has increased extremely quickly. However, the measurements of their physical properties, including their vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data, are time-consuming. It so happens that there is no physical property data about a brand-new chemical. Therefore, the importance of calculating their physicochemical properties has been playing a more and more important role. 4,6-Dichloropyrimidine (DCP) is also a relatively new molecule of high industrial importance with little existing data. Therefore, their measurements and the comparison with the calculated data are of paramount concern. DCP is a widespread heterocyclic moiety that is present in synthetic pharmacophores with biological activities as well as in numerous natural products. Isobaric VLE for the binary system of 4,6-dichloropyrimidine and its main solvent monochlorobenzene (MCB) was measured using a vapor condensate and liquid circulation VLE apparatus for the first time in the literature. Density functional-based VLE was calculated using the COSMO-SAC protocol to verify the laboratory results. The COSMO-SAC calculation was found to be capable of representing the VLE data with high accuracy. Adequate agreement between the experimental and calculated VLE data was acquired with a minimal deviation of 3.0 × 10-3, which allows for broader use of the results.

Abstract
Water solubility is one of the key features of potential therapeutic agents. In order to enhance the low water solubility of the parent 5-butyl-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-phenylpyrimidin-2-amine, a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) production, we synthesized and evaluated a new series of derivatives in which the butyl group at the C5 position of the pyrimidine ring was replaced with a less lipophilic substituent, preferably with a hydrophilic aliphatic moiety. Except for the 5-cyanopyrimidine derivative, all target compounds exhibited increased (2.7 - 87-fold) water solubility relative to the parent compound. Although nontoxic in mouse peritoneal cells, the prepared compounds were either equipotent or weaker inhibitors of PGE2 production than the parent compound. The most promising compound from the series was found to be the 5-(2,5,8,11-tetraoxadodecyl)pyrimidine derivative (with three polyethylene glycol units at the C5 position), which exhibited 32-fold higher water solubility and only slightly weaker inhibitory activity (22 % of remaining PGE2 production) compared with the parent compound (15 % of remaining PGE2 production).

Abstract
Pyrimidines are aromatic heterocyclic compounds that contain two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3 of the six-membered ring. Numerous natural and synthetic pyrimidines are known to exist. They display a range of pharmacological effects including antioxidants, antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antituberculosis, and anti-inflammatory. This review sums up recent developments in the synthesis, anti-inflammatory effects, and structure-activity relationships (SARs) of pyrimidine derivatives. Numerous methods for the synthesis of pyrimidines are described. Anti-inflammatory effects of pyrimidines are attributed to their inhibitory response versus the expression and activities of certain vital inflammatory mediators namely prostaglandin E2, inducible nitric oxide synthase, tumor necrosis factor-α, nuclear factor κB, leukotrienes, and some interleukins. Literature studies reveal that a large number of pyrimidines exhibit potent anti-inflammatory effects. SARs of numerous pyrimidines have been discussed in detail. Several possible research guidelines and suggestions for the development of new pyrimidines as anti-inflammatory agents are also given. Detailed SAR analysis and prospects together provide clues for the synthesis of novel pyrimidine analogs possessing enhanced anti-inflammatory activities with minimum toxicity.

Exploration of carbamide derived pyrimidine-thioindole conjugates as potential VEGFR-2 inhibitors with anti-angiogenesis effect. Eur J Med Chem 2020; 200:112457.

Abstract
The development of new small molecules from known structural motifs through molecular hybridization is one of the trends in drug discovery. In this connection, we have combined the two pharmacophoric units (pyrimidine and thioindole) in a single entity via molecular hybridization strategy along with introduction of urea functionality at C2 position of pyrimidine to increase the efficiency of H-bonding interactions. Among the synthesized conjugates 12a-aa, compound 12k was found to exhibit significant IC50 values 5.85, 7.87, 6.41 and 10.43 μM against MDA-MB-231 (breast), HepG2 (liver), A549 (lung) and PC-3 (prostate) cancer cell lines, respectively. All these compounds were further evaluated for their inhibitory activities against VEGFR-2 protein. The results specified that among the tested compounds, 12d, 12e, 12k, 12l, 12p, 12q, 12t and 12u prominently suppressed VEGFR-2, with IC50 values of 310-920 nM in association to the positive control (210 nM). Angiogenesis inhibition was evident by tube formation assay in HUVECs and cell-invasion by transwell assay. The mechanism of cellular toxicity on MDA-MB-231 was found through depolarisation of mitochondrial membrane potential, increased ROS production and subsequent DNA damage resulting in apoptosis induction. Moreover, clonogenic and wound healing assays designated the inhibition of colony formation and cell migration by 12k in a dose-dependent manner. Molecular docking studies also shown that compound 12k capably intermingled with catalytically active residues GLU-885, ASP-1046 of the VEGFR-2 through hydrogen-bonding interactions.

Abstract
A series of 2- and 7-substituted phthalazinones was synthesised and their potential as anti-tubercular drugs assessed via Mycobacterium tuberculosis (mc2 6230) growth inhibition assays. All phthalazinones tested showed growth inhibitory activity (MIC <100 μm), and those compounds containing lipophilic and electron-withdrawing groups generally exhibited better anti-tubercular activity. Several lead compounds were identified, including 7-((2-amino-6-(4-fluorophenyl)pyrimidin-4-yl)amino)-2-heptylphthalazin-1(2H)-one (MIC=1.6 μm), 4-tertbutylphthalazin-2(1H)-one (MIC=3 μm), and 7-nitro-phthalazin-1(2H)-one (MIC=3 μm). Mode of action studies indicated that selected pyrimidinyl-phthalazinones may interfere with NADH oxidation, however, the mode of action of the lead compound is independent of this enzyme. MIC=minimum inhibitory concentration.
