Phenylaminopyrimidines represent a large group of new selective anticancer agents, the majority of which exert their action through the inhibition of specific kinases. In this study, a new series of N-substituted-2-aminopyrimidines has been designed and synthesized. A selected group of the synthesized derivatives was screened at a single dose concentration of 10 ${\mu}M$ over a panel of 60 cancer cell-lines. Compound 12e has showed great inhibitory and strong lethal effect over almost all of the 60 cell-lines and accordingly was further tested in a 5-dose testing mode to determine its $IC_{50}$ values, where it showed great efficacies with intermediate potencies over the tested cell-lines. The compound was also tested over a panel of 52 kinases to explore its kinase inhibitory profile, and was found to be a selective but moderate inhibitor over FLT3 kinase.
