Based on our previous work, seven N 5 ‐substituted 8,10‐dideazatetrahydrofolate analogues and one 8‐deazatetrahydrofolate analogue were designed and synthesized as human dihydrofolate reductase ( hDHFR ) inhibitors. All compounds were assayed versus DHFR and five different cancer cell lines. The biological assay indicated that replacing N 10 with carbon would significantly increase inhibitory activities against DHFR and cytotoxicities against cancer cell lines. Compound 19a with 4‐amino and N 5 ‐formyl showed great antitumour activities against HL ‐60, Bel‐7402 and BGC 823 which were much better than MTX .
