attributed to the presence of the catechol group, which is known to undergo one-electron oxidation readily to give the corresponding semiquinone radical. Other relatedcatechols had similar cytotoxic activity. In general, derivatization of the catechol functionality resulted in a decrease of the cytotoxicpotential of the compounds. Monoacetylation or monomethylation of the catechols gave products that were
