Abstract

This dissertation deals with the synthesis of substituted pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines and pyrimido[4,5-b]indoles as potential antitumor agents. The approaches to target tumor cells include inhibition of tumor induced angiogenesis via multiple receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibition (or) inhibition of the folate metabolizing enzymes - dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) or thymidylate synthase (TS) (or) inhibition of tubulin.
