Novel VEGFR-2 kinase inhibitors identified by the back-to-front approach

We report a novel VEGFR-2 inhibitor, developed by the back-to-front approach. Docking experiments indicated that the 3-chloromethylphenylurea motif of the lead compound occupied the back pocket of VEGFR-2 kinase. An attempt was made to enhance the binding affinity of 1 by expanding the structure to...
