Starting from the reaction of ethyl cyanoacetate with thiourea and the appropriate aldehydes, a series of new thiopyrimidine derivatives were prepared. Antibacterial evaluation results revealed that compounds 12b, 4c and 11b gave the highest antibacterial activity against all tested bacterial strains. Also, some of the novel compounds were evaluated as cytotoxic agents against liver cancer (HEPG2) cell line. It was noticed that some of the derivatives induced significant growth inhibition with IC50 values (ranged from 6.35 to 9.38 μg/mL) in comparison to 5-Fluorouracil after treatment (IC50: 5 μg/mL).
