A method of treating a cancer selected from a group consisting of:
- breast cancer, brain cancer, Kaposi sarcoma, leukemia, lung cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer, colon cancer, renal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer, the method comprising the steps of:
- administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound having the general chemical structure of chemical formula 4:
- or any pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof;
- wherein the group R1 is an alkoxy group the groups R2 and R3 are each a methoxy group or a hydroxy group, the group R6 is an alkoxy group, a hydroxyl group or hydrogen, the group R8 is an alkoxy group or hydrogen, the group R9 is a hydroxyl group, bromine, chlorine, flourine, hydroxamic acid group, amine, amide, or hydrogen;
- and
- wherein A-B is a single bond representing a flavanone flavonoid.
