Abstract

The benzamides 1 and the benzamidines 2–3 were synthesized as the mimics of 4- anilinoquinazolines, which possess inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase, and tested for cytotoxicity toward A431 and inhibitory activity toward autophosphorylation by the enzyme assay. High cell growth inhibition was observed in a series of the cyclic benzamides 3: the IC50 values are 0.09–0.32 mM. The benzamidines ...
