We report the efficient synthesis and biological evaluation of new benzodioxinoindolocarbazoles heterocycles (BDCZs) designed as potential anticancer agents. Indolic substitution and maleimide variations were performed to design a new library of BDCZs and their cytotoxicity were evaluated on two representative cancer cell lines. Several derivatives have shown a marked cytotoxicity with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. Results are reported in this Letter. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
