Three series of 6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline derivatives substituted in the 4-position by aniline, N-methylaniline and aryloxy entities, targeting EGFR and VEGFR-2 tyrosine kinases, were designed and synthesized. Pharmacological activities of these compounds have been evaluated for their enzymatic inhibition of VEGFR-2 and EGFR and for their antiproliferative activities on various cancer cell lines. We have studied the impact of the variation in the 4-position substitution of the quinazoline core. Substitution by aryloxy groups led to new compounds which are selective inhibitors of VEGFR-2 enzyme with IC50 values in the nanomolar range in vitro. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
