Abstract
Quinazoline and/or chalcones derivatives are important targets in several areas of chemical sciences, mainly, in the medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical research. The purpose of this review was to systematize the information available in the literature, including patents, regarding the benefits, exerted by the combination of these two pharmacophores into single molecules. These hybrid compounds can exhibit different biological activities, causing a synergistic or a new effect, compared to the individuals. The variability of biological activities includes anticancer, anti-Alzheimer, antiviral and antimicrobial activities, among others. Additionally, synthetic methodologies to prepare the different molecular architectures were discussed based on their similarities. The increasing number of publications indicates the importance of molecular hybridization in the field of drug discovery.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance to chemotherapy is a critical health problem associated with mutation of the therapeutic target. Therefore, the development of anticancer agents remains a challenge to overcome cancer cell resistance. Herein, a new series of quinazoline-based pyrimidodiazepines 16a-g were synthesized by the cyclocondensation reaction of 2-chloro-4-anilinoquinazoline-chalcones 14a-g with 2,4,5,6-tetraaminopyrimidine. All quinazoline derivatives 14a-g and 16a-g were selected by the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) for testing their anticancer activity against 60 cancer cell lines of different panels of human tumors. Among the tested compounds, quinazoline-chalcone 14g displayed high antiproliferative activity with GI50 values between 0.622-1.81 μM against K-562 (leukemia), RPMI-8226 (leukemia), HCT-116 (colon cancer) LOX IMVI (melanoma), and MCF7 (breast cancer) cancer cell lines. Additionally, the pyrimidodiazepines 16a and 16c exhibited high cytostatic (TGI) and cytotoxic activity (LC50), where 16c showed high cytotoxic activity, which was 10.0-fold higher than the standard anticancer agent adriamycin/doxorubicin against ten cancer cell lines. COMPARE analysis revealed that 16c may possess a mechanism of action through DNA binding that is similar to that of CCNU (lomustine). DNA binding studies indicated that 14g and 16c interact with the calf thymus DNA by intercalation and groove binding, respectively. Compounds 14g, 16c and 16a displayed strong binding affinities to DNA, EGFR and VEGFR-2 receptors. None of the active compounds showed cytotoxicity against human red blood cells.

Abstract
Overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is commonly reported in epithelial malignancies such as oral squamous cell carcinoma. Inhibition of EGFR is, therefore, considered a potential therapeutic strategy. Among various anti-EGFR drugs, quinazoline-based tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have gained increasing attention. Present study focused to investigate anti-EGFR potential of quinazoline-based compounds using in silico approach. Two widely used docking programs GOLD and AutoDock Vina were used for the study. Four drugs were docked on the X-ray crystallographic EGFR structure (1XKK). GOLD and AutoDock Vina produced results in terms of fitness score and binding affinity, respectively. GOLD prioritized varlitinib and AutoDock Vina preferred imatinib over other drugs. To reach the consensus from both software, all four drugs coupled with EGFR were studied rigorously. GOLD demonstrated varlitinib to be the best inhibitor with highest fitness score of 109, whereas AutoDock Vina revealed imatinib as the potent ligand with least binding energy of -10.9 kcal/mol. Most stable hydrogen bonds observed by GOLD and maximum number of hydrophobic contacts along with strong ionic interaction exhibited by varlitinib through both software have led us to conclude varlitinib as the most potent EGFR inhibitor in the studied group.

Abstract
Achieving challenging molecular diversity in contemporary chemical synthesis
remains a formidable hurdle, particularly in the delivery of diversified bioactive heterocyclic
pharmacophores for drug design and pharmaceutical applications. The coupling methods that
combine a diverse range of readily accessible and commercially available pools of substrates
under the action of earth-abundant first row transition metal catalysts have certainly matured
into powerful tools, thus offering sustainable alternatives to revolutionize the organic synthesis.
This minireview highlights the successful utilization of the catalytic ability of the first
row transition metals (Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu) in the modular assembly of quinazoline heterocycle,
ubiquitously present in numerous alkaloids, commercial medicines and is associated with a
diverse range of pharmacological activities. The broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance of the
targeted methods were extensively explored, identifying the future strategic advances in the field. The investigation
will also be exemplified with mechanistic studies as long as they are deemed necessary.

Abstract
The first example of phenylation of fluorobenzonitriles with the sodium salt of a benzonitrile radical anion in liquid ammonia is presented. The reaction regioselectivity corresponds to the ortho- and para-fluorine atom substitution in fluorobenzonitrile with the phenyl moiety of the benzonitrile radical anion and affords 2- and 4-cyanobiphenyls in 40-90% yields. 3-Methoxybenzonitrile as well as 1-cyanonaphthalene radical anions were also successfully subjected to this interaction forming 3'-methoxycyanobiphenyls and (1-naphthyl)benzonitriles, respectively. The radical anion acts as an ipso-C-nucleophile with consequent loss of the cyano group. The revealed new type of radical anion reactivity opens up the prospect of developing a general approach to fluorinated cyanobisarenes on the basis of an interaction of the cyanoarene radical anion with fluorinated substrates activated to aromatic nucleophilic substitution.

Abstract
We present the solid-phase synthesis of 1,2-dihydroquinazoline-2-carboxylate derivatives with a quaternary carbon in position 2 and their subsequent cyclization in solution into compounds with unique 3D architectures and pharmacological relevance-spiroquinazolines, namely, 1' H-spiro[pyrrolidine-3,2'-quinazolin]-2-ones and 1' H-spiro[piperidine-3,2'-quinazolin]-2-ones. Acyclic precursors were prepared from commercially available building blocks: protected amino acids (2,4-diaminobutyric acid and ornithine), 2-nitrobenzensulfonyl chlorides and α-bromoacetophenones. The crucial step of the synthesis was a base-mediated tandem reaction including C-arylation followed by cyclization into indazole oxides, and the formation of a 5-membered heterocycle was accomplished by ring expansion into quinazolines. These derivatives were cyclized into spiro compounds in solution after cleavage from the resin.

Abstract
Aim: Novel quinazolinone and triazinoquinazolinone derivatives were designed and synthesized as apoptotic inducers. Methodology/results: Most of the synthesized compounds showed excellent antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and HCT-116 cell lines, respectively. Compounds 7a, 8a, 8d, 14a and 14d were superior to doxorubicin as activators of caspases 3, 8 and 9 in HCT-116 cell line. The most potent caspase inducers, 8d and 14a showed cell cycle arrest mainly in G1 and S phase, respectively and increased the levels of p53, Bax and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio compared with doxorubicin in HCT-116 cells with excellent selectivity against CCD-18Co human colon normal cell line. Conclusion: The synthesized compounds can be considered as potent apoptotic inducers interfering with extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways.
