Synthesis and cytotoxicity studies of newly designed benzyl-hydroquinone derivatives

Abstract: A series of new benzyl-substituted hydroquinones has been prepared by short and flexible routes. Such molecules are simplified analogs of bioactive natural terpenes. Preliminary studies have established, for some of these derivatives, promising cytotoxicity data against human carcinoma cancer cell lines.

One step hair coloring compositions using salts
