In earlier investigations we have described the synthesis and biological evaluation of a panel of novel glycosylated heteroaromatics (1–12). It was found that these compounds can bind to DNA in vitro and are cytotoxic against several cancer cell lines at low micromolar concentration. We report here structure–activity studies of these molecules with respect to DNA binding and cytotoxicity. In particular
