Inhibition of tubulin polymerization is one of the important tactics in cancer therapy. Since 4-aryl-4H-chromene derivatives are found to be microtubule-binding agents via interfering with tubulin polymerization so we decide to concentrate our exploration efforts on the combination of this nucleus with 5-, 6-, and/or 7-memebered heterocyclic moieties in a novel series of compounds to explore the effect that might result from this combination. Ten novel compounds were selected for anticancer screening assay against MCF-7 breast cancer cell line in comparison to colchicine as positive control and most of them showed excellent activity.
