1,3,5-Triazine: Recent Development in Synthesis of its Analogs and Biological Profile

Triazine is an important pharmacophore in the field of research for the development of novel medications due to its presence in numerous powerful physiologically active compounds with significant medical potential, such as anti-tumor, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-HIV, anti-leishmanial and others. The easy availability of triazine, high reactivity, simple synthesis of their analog, and their notable broad range of biological activities have garnered chemist interest in designing s-triazine-based drugs. The interest of medicinal chemists has been sparked by the structure-activity relationship of these biologically active entities, leading to the discovery of several promising lead molecules. Its importance for medicinal chemistry research is demonstrated by the remarkable progress made with triazine derivatives in treating a variety of disorders in a very short period. Authors have collated and reviewed the medicinal potential of s-triazine analogous to afford medicinal chemists with a thorough and target-oriented overview of triazine-derived compounds. We hope the present compilation will help people from the industry and research working in the medicinal chemistry area.
