Abstract

A series of new pyrido[2,3-d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines with different substituents at position 3 were synthesized. The effect of the newly synthesized compounds was tested in vitro on human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF7). Some of the synthesized compounds exploited potent antitumor activity, especially the 3-amino derivative 12 which displayed the highest activity among the test compounds with IC50 equal to 3.74 μg/mL.
