Abstract

A series of pyridazin-3-one substituted with morpholino-pyrimidine derivatives was synthesized and evaluated as tyrosine kinase inhibitors against c-Met enzyme, and anti-proliferative activities of Hs746T human gastric cancer cell line. Most of compounds exhibited good biological activity, while compound 10, 12a, 14a displayed excellent c-Met enzyme inhibitory activities and Hs746T cell-based activities.
