Abstract

Several benzocyclobutacarbazol derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential cytotoxic properties. A number of these compounds exhibited significant antiproliferative activity with concomitant interaction with the cell cycle and represent a new class of potential Anticancer agents.
