When Q is present, represents a double bond and Q is O, NH, or S;

Y is O or S;

R 3 and R 4 are independently a hydrogen; hydroxyl; substituted or unsubstituted: cyclic or acyclic alkyl group, cyclic or acyclic alkenyl group, cyclic or acyclic alkynyl group, aryl group, alkylary group, aryalkyl group, heteroaryl group, heterocycloalkyl group; and

r, r′, and r″ are each independently an integer from 1 to 3.

2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R is a substituted benzyl.

11. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R″ is hydrogen, R is p-methoxybenzyl, and R′ is p-methoxy-benzyl.

12. The compound of claim 1 , selected from the group consisting of:

wherein x and y are integers from 1-17;

wherein x and y are integers from 1-10;

13. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R is covalently bonded to the 7-position.

14. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R′ is covalently bonded to the 3-position.

15. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R″ is a substituted phenyl.

16. The compound of claim 15 , wherein the substituted phenyl is p-methoxyphenyl.

17. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R is hydrogen, R′ is p-methoxybenzyl and R″ is p-methoxy-phenyl.

18. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R is hydrogen, R′ is p-methoxybenzyl and R″ is p-methoxy-phenyl and R′ is substituted on the 3 position, R″ is substituted on the 9(b) position and Q is oxygen.

19. A composition comprising a compound of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

20. A method for treating breast cancer comprising administering to a mammal in need thereof a composition comprising a therapeutically acceptable compound of claim 1 .

21. The compound of claim 1 that is

22. The composition of claim 19 , wherein at least one of R, R′, and R″ is a substituted benzyl.

23. The composition of claim 19 , wherein R and R′ are each a substituted benzyl.
