Disclosed are novel bisanthrapyrazoles that likely act as bisintercalators and topoisomerase Ilα inhibitors. These compounds show potent inhibition of cancer cell growth, and certain bisanthrapyrazoles bind to DNA more tightly than doxorubicin, a known intercalating anti-cancer drug. Molecular modeling techniques are also disclosed that allow one to predict the DNA binding strength of various intercalators.
