Abstract

The dissertation will give an introduction, background and our research progress in the areas of antifolates. The design and synthesis of both classical and nonclassical bicyclic furo[2,3-d]pyrimidines, pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines and tricyclic pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles as potential antifolates have been described. As a part of this study, a total of one hundred and fifty-three new compounds have been synthesized and characterized. Of these, sixty-seven final compounds were submitted for biological evaluation.
