A rhodanine-based compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is provided to show excellent inhibitory activity on CDC25B phosphatase acting on cell cycle decisively, thereby showing high anticancer activity on cancer cells. A rhodanine-based compound is represented by a formula(1), wherein each Ar1 and Ar2 is independently phenyl or pyridine, which may be substituted by at least two substituents selected from the group consisting of C1-4 alkyl, halogen, C1-7 alkoxy, C3-4 alkenyloxy, C2-4 acyl, cyano or nitro. An anti-cancer agent composition comprises the rhodanine-based compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an effective ingredient.
