Abstract

The synthesis of pyridylmethylene lactams and indolylmethylene-2-indolinones is reported. These compounds were tested for their cytotoxic and positive inotropic activity. The presence of both the effects (coanthracyclinic activity) was confirmed in some of the indolylmethylene-2-indolinones.
