Abstract | ||||
Pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives comprise a class of biologically active heterocyclic compounds that are well known to play a critical role in pharmaceutical drug design and health care. The pyrrolopyrimidines serve as promising scaffolds that were found in a number of biologically active compounds including antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anticancer. Researchers were inspired to develop novel pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives for the treatment of Cancer. Currently several pyrrolopyrimidines are available commercially as anticancer drugs. The present review article offers a detailed account on the development of pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives with anticancer potential with emphasis on their activity as targeted kinase inhibitors. | ||||
