A series of forty-six 5,6-annulated 2-arylthieno [2,3- d pyrimidin-4(3 H)-ones were prepared as potentially pleiotropic anticancer drugs with variance in the tubulin-binding trimethoxyphenyl motif at C-2 of a thieno [2,3- d pyrimidine fragment, enlarged by additional rings of different size and substitution. By assessing their cytotoxicity against various cancer cells, their influence on the polymerization of neat tubulin and the dynamics of microtubule and F-actin cytoskeletons, and their vascular-disrupting and anti-angiogenic activities in vitro and in vivo , structure-activity relations were identified which suggest the 3-iodo-4,5-dimethoxyphenyl substituted thienopyrimidine 2e as a promising anticancer drug candidate for further research. 2020 Elsevier Ltd.
