title: Cytotoxic effect of 2,3-disubstituted chromanones in human cancer cell lines.
abstract: Four different synthetic compounds [3-aryl-2-(3-pyridyl)chromanones] were prepared and screened for cytotoxicity against a panel of 29 human cancer cell lines in five different concentrations separately. All compounds displayed cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines and one of them possessed cell type selectivity also.
