5-aryl-1-[2-(phosphonomethoxy)ethyl]uracils were prepared via Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of the appropriate 5-bromouracil derivative with a series of arylboronic acids followed by deprotection. These compounds were designed as potential multisubstrate inhibitors of thymidine phosphorylase based on an assumption that the potential hydrophobic effect of the aryl groups might modify the inhibitory effect towards this enzyme and they may also demonstrate cytostatic activity.
