This work describes the antiproliferative potential of 14 cyclic imides (methylphtalimides, carboxylic acid phtalimides and itaconimides) against several human cancer cell lines. The antiproliferative effect was evaluated using the sulforhodamine B assay. Although some compounds from methylphtalimide and carboxylic acid phtalimide classes exhibited a selective antiproliferative activity, the itaconimides ( 11–14 ) exhibited the best results, especially compound  14 , which presented a TGI (concentration that produces total growth inhibition) value of 0.0043 μM against glioma (U251), being inactive against the non-tumor cell line (HaCat). Absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion in silico evaluations suggest that these compounds are promising candidates.
