- -competitive PI3Kγ inhibitors [7]. A few years ago, we worked intensively on 2-heteroarylimino-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones as potential antitumor agents [8] and we demonstrated that derivative F was an interesting CDC25A inhibitor [9]. Up to now, the synthesis of most organic compounds still uses harmful reagents
