A series of novel cyclic analogues of curcumin were synthesized and analyzed for in vitro cytostatic activity. Condensation of 2-acetylcycloalkanones with a variety of aromatic aldehydes resulted in the formation of 2-arylidene-6-(3-arylacryoyl)-cyclo-alkanone derivatives. A number of these analogues were found to have significant anticancer activity against representative murine and human cancer cell lines during in vitro bioassays. This corroborated with in vitro cytostatic activity against a panel of 60 cell lines studied at the National Cancer Institute (USA). (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
