Abstract
Pyrimidine-containing heterocyclic molecules are highly important in medicinal chemistry because of their versatile biological activities and their potential for structural modification. These scaffolds have consistently attracted the attention of chemists and biologists alike and serve as key building blocks in the design and development of bioactive compounds. Recent advances in pyrimidine chemistry─including novel synthetic methodologies, named reactions, catalytic strategies, and functionalization techniques─have further expanded their applicability. The biological importance of pyrimidine derivatives has been instrumental in the development of several commercially available drugs in recent years. Given the ongoing global research in this area, there is a clear need to review and highlight recent developments in a systematic manner. This review not only provides insights into current trends but also serves as a valuable resource for researchers in the pharmaceutical industry and academic institutions engaged in early-stage drug discovery efforts.
