synthesized and evaluated as novel antitumor agents. Rhodacyanine dye consists of two heteroaromatic rings such as thiazoles at both termini of the conjugate systems and 4-oxothiazolidine (rhodanine) in the middle of it. Compounds with such a unique double-conjugate structure were found to inhibit the growth of several tumor cell lines, such as colon carcinoma CX-1, and to exhibit relatively low toxicity against
