Abstract | ||||
The pyrimidine ring is widely known for its biological activity through history, either by itself or attached to other heterocyclic rings. The importance of pyrimidine is due to its presence in the nucleic acid, in addition to its presence in natural and synthetic drugs. Based on the ring significance, that’s an overview of the recent pyrimidines synthesis, reactions and its different biological activities over the past three years. It was shown that it has a generous contribution to the pharmaceutical industry. Scientists are still working on its derivatives to get promising results in different areas, especially as anticancer agents. | ||||
