Various methoxy- and hydroxy-substituted dibenz[c,e]oxepines were prepared via the copper(I)-inducedcoupling of ether-tethered arylstannanes or the dehydrative cyclisation of 1,1′-biphenyl-2,2′-dimethanols, assembled using the Ullmann cross-coupling of ortho-bromoaryl carbonyl compounds. The dibenzoxepines were screened for their ability to inhibit tubulin polymerisation and the in vitrogrowth of
