2, 4-Disubstituted-5-fluoropyrimidine is a biologically active molecular core seen in various anticancer agents such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). As part of a programme aimed at discovering kinase inhibitors, routes to two series of novel compounds (5-fluoropyrimidine-2- carboxamides and 5-fluoropyrimidine-4-carboxamides) were successfully executed. For the first series, regioselective substitution at the 4-position of the pyrimidine with an amine ( ...
