A new series of 2-substituted mercapto-3H-quinozolines bearing 6-iodo and 2-heteroarylthio functions was synthesized and screened for their in vitro antitumor activity. Eighteen compounds were identified as active anticancer agents. N'-[(3-Benzyl-4-oxo-6-iodo-3H-quinazoline-2-yl)thioacetyl]-N(3)-ethylthiosemicarbazide (10), N-benzoyl-N'-[2-(3-benzyl-4-oxo-6-iodo-3H-quinozolin-2-yl)thioacetyl]hydrazine (12), and 2-[(3, 6-dioxo-pyridazin-4-yl)thio]-3-benzyl-4-oxo-6-iodo-3H-quinazoline (20) proved to be the most active members in this study. They showed MG-MID, GI(50) values of 12.8, 11.3, and 13.8 microM, respectively. The detailed synthesis and biological screening data are reported.
