Abstract

Quinazoline and their based scaffolds can be defined as nitrogenious heterocyclic motifs with distinguished biomedical and chemical applications. Quinazoline and their derivatives comprise a family of more than 200 naturally occurred alkaloids. Recently, novel quinazolinone based molecules have been investigated, applied in designing numerous efficient protocols to produce more biomedical and pharmaceutical active scaffolds. This review evaluated the recent advanced protocols investigated for designing and synthesis quinazolines and their based scaffolds. Additionally, estimated the biomedical and therapeutical activities of these molecules. The information included in this review would assist the chemical and biomedical researches in designing novel quinazoline analogues can be considered as drug like candidates in different pharmaceutical approaches.
