Abstract

We report the efficient synthesis and biological evaluation of new benzodioxinoindolocarbazoles heterocycles (BDCZs) designed as potential Anticancer agents. Indolic substitution and maleimide variations were performed to design a new library of BDCZs and their cytotoxicity were evaluated on two representative Cancer cell lines. Several derivatives have shown a marked cytotoxicity with IC(50) values in the nanomolar range. Results are reported in this Letter.
