Abstract
A novel compound N-benzyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydrofuro [3,4-d]pyrimidine-3(4H)-carboxamide (DHFP) was synthesized by addition, rearrangement, and intramolecular cyclization reactions. The three-dimensional geometry of DHFP has been determined by density functional theory calculations in the gas phase. Thus, the geometrical properties of DHFP such as the bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral bond angles have been determined in the optimized molecular configuration. Also, the HOMO-LUMO energies were calculated. The charge distribution of the DHFP has been calculated by Natural Population Analysis (NPA) approach. NMR and FTIR spectra were calculated and compared with their experimental corresponding to confirm the synthesis of the DHFP. The anticancer activities of the DHFP were also determined on human colon cancer (HT29) and prostate cancer (DU145) cell lines. Molecular docking studies of the DHFP with EGFR tyrosine kinase, which is responsible for cancer cell proliferation and growth, were performed and it was observed that docking interaction took place. The DHFP has the potential to be a drug, as it is determined that DHFP obeys Lipinski's five rules, can cross the blood-brain barrier, and can be rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal wall.
