Molecular docking studies of these compounds were performed with vascular endothelial growth factors receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) tyrosine kinase (PDB ID:3WZE). Cytotoxicity studies against human prostate cancer cells (DU145), revealed that compound 8 e has cytotoxic potential. Additionally, in-silico ADME studies appeared that most of the synthesized compounds obeyed Lipinski's rule. Also, the mechanism for 5,6-dihydro-4H-furo[3,4-c]pyrrol-4-one, which occurs in the reaction of isocyanate 2 with thiols, was proposed. The azide group acts as the leaving group in this reaction.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCurtius RearrengementIntramolecular CyclizationLipinski RuleAzide EliminationProtein-Ligand InteractionSynthesis of 1,2-Dihydrofuro[3,4-d]pyrimidine Derivatives as Potential VEGFR-2 Inhibitors, and Proposed Mechanism for the 5,6-Dihydro-4H-furo[3,4-c]pyrrol-4-oneArticle10.1002/slct.2023001502-s2.0-8515980201117Q28WOS:000980143700001N/A
