Abstract
Pyrroloindoline

significant
natural
products.
Meanwhile,
the

of

have
garnered
increasing
attention
due
to
their
unique
properties.
However,

N-CF3-containing
pyrroloindolines
remain
underexplored.
Building
on
our
previously
developed
method

scaffolds,
this
study
systematically
evaluated
antitumor
a
diverse
series
N-CF₃-containing
derivatives.
Cell-based
assays
demonstrated
that
these
derivatives
exhibited

lines,
including
786-O,

Further

also

Moreover,
they

These
findings
suggest
hold
great
