In order to find more effective antitumor drugs, a series of novel hydrazone-substituted pyrimidine derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antitumor activity against five different human cancer cell lines including MCF-7 (human breast cancer cell), MGC-803 (human gastric cancer cell), PC-3 (human prostate cancer cell), Hela (human cervical cancer cell) and A549 (human lung cancer cell) using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Most of the target compounds showed moderate to potent antitumor activity against five selected cancer cell lines. Among them, 2-(prop-2-yn-1-ylthio)-4-(2-(pyridin-2-ylmethylene)-hydrazinyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine (12l) displayed the most potent anti-proliferative activity against PC-3 cell line (IC₅₀ = 1.37 μmol·L^-1), which was significantly better than the positive control drug 5-fluorouracil. This work provided clues to discover new antitumor agents.
