A group of 1-alkylaminomethyl-2-aryl-3-arylidenecyclohex(pent)enes 3a-n with a 1-alkylaminomethyl-2,4-diaryl-1,3-butadiene fragment and a group of their congeners 3-alkylaminomethyl-1,2-diarylcyclohexene 7a-f have been synthesised for the first time. The conjugated system in 1-alkylaminomethyl-2-aryl-3-arylidenecyclohex(pent)enes 3a-n was unambiguously confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Cytotoxicity tests revealed that 3a-n possess inconsistent cytotoxicity against cancer cells, not their congeners 7a-f.
