Abstract

Structure-antitumor activity relationships are reported for a number of different examples (acridine, phenazine, anthracene, acridone, xanthenone, thioxanthenone, anthraquinone, pyridoquinazoline, dibenzodioxin, thianthrene, phenothiazine, phenoxazine, dibenzofuran, carbazole, and pyridoindole) of the general class of N-[2-(dimethylamino) ethyl] linear tricyclic carboxamides. Only the compounds containing coplanar chromophores ...
