Abstract

A structure-activity relationship study of 4-anilinopyrimidines for dual EGFR/Her-2 inhibitor has resulted in the identification of 4-anilino-5-alkenyl or 5-alkynyl-6-methylpyrimidine derivatives that have exhibited effective inhibitory activity against both Enzymes. The presence of 5-alkenyl or 5-alkynyl moiety bearing terminal hydrophilic group played important role for inhibition of these Enzymes. Selected compounds in the series demonstrated some activity against Her-2 dependent cell line (BT474).
