Abstract
A new series of thieno[2,3-d][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines was designed and synthesized using readily available starting materials, specifically, β-enaminoester. Their cytotoxicity was screened against three cancer cell lines, namely, MCF-7, HCT-116, and PC-3. 2-(4-bromophenyl)triazole 10b and 2-(anthracen-9-yl)triazole 10e afforded excellent potency against MCF-7 cell lines (IC50 = 19.4 ± 0.22 and 14.5 ± 0.30 μM, respectively) compared with doxorubicin (IC50 = 40.0 ± 3.9 μM). The latter derivatives 10b and 10e were further subjected to in silico ADME and docking simulation studies against EGFR and PI3K and could serve as ideal leads for additional modification in the field of anticancer research.

Abstract
In the current study, new thienopyrimidine conjugates bearing 1,2,3-triazole core and different sugar moieties have been designed and synthesized by Cu(I)-catalysed click dipolar cycloaddition. The cytotoxic activity of the synthesised conjugates 2, 5, 7, and 13-18 was studied against HCT-116 and MCF-7 cell lines by the MTT assay. The triazole glycosides 16 and 18 provided significant cytotoxic activities against HCT-116 cell lines comparable to that of doxorubicin and other studied compounds. The cytotoxic behaviour against MCF-7 exhibited that all the investigated compounds were more potent than doxorubicin. Moreover, all screened targets were evaluated against mutant EGFR kinase type L858R and the results revealed that the acetylated 1,2,3-triazole glycosides 13-18 exhibited excellent EGFR inhibitory activity in comparison with gefitinib. Furthermore, molecular modelling studies were performed to investigate the binding affinity of the most active compounds to EGFR enzyme.

Abstract
A series of new substituted triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives linked to thienopyrimidine ring system were prepared as a hybrid heterocyclic systems, as possible nucleobases analogs, starting from the key carboxamide derivative 2 and its azide precursor via heterocyclization reactions and their structures were characterized. Glycosylation of the prepared triazolopyrimidine derivatives was performed and afforded, regioselctively, the corresponding thienopyrimidine-triazolopyrimidine hybrid N1-glycosides and their thioglycoside analogues in good yields. The synthesized glycosyl heterocycles were studied for their cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 and MCF-7 human cancer cells and significant results were obtained. Compounds 7a, 8 b, 9 b, 9a and 7 b demonstrated promising activities comparable to the activity of the doxorubicin for (HepG-2) cell line. Furthermore, a number of the afforded triazolopyrimidine glycosides were found potent against cancer cells (MCF-7). Furthermore, docking simulation the promising thienopyrimidine analogues 7-13 was done against EGFR kinase to provide a binding model that could serve in discovery of further anticancer agents.

Anticancer Activity Evaluation of New Thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones and Thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one Derivatives. Sci Pharm 2018; 86:scipharm86030028.

Abstract
Anticancer screening of several novel thienopyrimidines has been performed. The thienopyrimidine derivatives were synthesized from available starting materials according to the convenient synthetic procedures using a one-pot solvent-free reaction which gave a wide access to thienopyrimidine-derivative production. The synthesized compounds were preselected via molecular docking to be tested for their anticancer activity in NCI 60 cell lines. It was observed that some compounds showed remarkable anticancer activity. It was found that the most active compound among thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4(3H)-ones is 2-(benzylamino)-5,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one, which possesses cytotoxic activity on almost all cancer cell lines with mean growth 51.01%, where the most sensitive was the melanoma cell line MDA-MB-435 with GP (Growth Percent) = −31.02%. The patterns of structure–activity that are important for further optimization of the structure and the creation of more selective and active anticancer agents were proposed.
