Main description:

Dihydropyrimidinones as Potent Anticancer Agents gives readers a unique update on scientific knowledge, accomplishments and recent advances in the medicinal chemistry of dihydropyrimidinones in cancer treatment. Dihydropyrimidinones are known to be active scaffold and have been reported to show some exceptional results with regards to malignancies. With ever increasing knowledge and information about synthesis, pharmacology and other aspects of dihydropyrimidinones, there is need to document such information in one place. Since the field of medicinal chemistry is dynamic, with new emerging trends, it provides readily available updated information on chemistry and pharmacology aspects of dihydropyrimidinones in cancer.

This book covers everything about dihydropyrimidinones from synthesis, derivatives, mode of action and potential therapeutic targets. It will also provide insights about the clinical trials and way forward in cancer research of dihydropyrimidinones.
