Abstract

The synthesis of a number of new benzothiopyrano[4,3,2-cd]isoindole aminoderivatives designed as structural analogues of the key metabolite of the Anticancer agent Ledacrine (nitracrine) and their in vitro cytotoxic activity evaluation against HCT-116, MES-SA, and MES-SA/Dx Cancer cell lines is reported. The majority of the derivatives possessed noticeable cytotoxicity in a low μM range indicating an interesting structure-activity relationship.
