A series of (2E,2′E)-1,1′-(3-hydroxy-5-methylbiphenyl-2,6-diyl)-bis(3-pheylprop-2-ene-1-ones (5–33) were prepared by the reaction of 1,3-diacetyl biphenyls (1–4) with different aldehydes in presence of catalytic amount of solid KOH in ethanol in excellent yields. The compounds were evaluated for anticancer activity against human breast cancer MCF-7 (estrogen responsive proliferative breast cancer model) and MDA-MB-231 (estrogen independent aggressive breast cancer model) cell lines, HeLa (cervical cancer) cell line, and human embryonic kidney (HEK-293) cells. Most of the compounds preferentially inhibited the growth of the aggressive human breast cancer cell lines, MDA-MB-231 in the range of 4.4–30 μM. The two compounds 9 and 29 proved to be better anticancer agents than the standard drug tamoxifen against the MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Mode of action of these compounds was established to be apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential.
