Abstract
In the recent few years, the emergence of heterocyclic ring-containing anti-cancer agents has gained a great deal of attention among medicinal chemists. Among these, azepine-based compounds are particularly becoming attractive recently. In this Focus Review, we highlight the recent advancements in the development of azepine-based anti-cancer compounds since the year 2000.
