Amidinohydrazone compounds are very important synthetic intermediates and can serve as versatile precursors in synthesis of many natural products and drug molecules. The use of ultrasound, p-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA) and water as solvent improved the synthesis of different 2-(1,5-diaryl-1,4- pentadien-3-ylidene)-hydrazinecarboximidamide hydrochlorides. The best reaction conditions for the condensation of 1,5-diphenyl-1,4-pentadien-3-one with aminoguanidine hydrochloride were as follows: 1,5-diphenyl-1,4-pentadiene-3-one (1, 1 mmol), aminoguanidine hydrochloride (1.1 mmol), DBSA (0.5 mmol), water 10 mL, reaction temperature 25-27°C, irradiation frequency 25 kHz. 2a was achieved in 94% yield within 2 h. The other seven amidinohydrazones were obtained in 84-94% yield within 2-3 h under the same conditions. Compared to the method involving catalysis by hydrochloric acid in refluxing EtOH, the advantages of present procedure are milder conditions, shorter reaction times, higher yields, and environmental friendly conditions, which make it a useful strategy for the synthesis of analogues.

It has been demanded to improve the poor solubility of curcumin to develop an anti-tumor compound capable of inhibiting the growth of various cancer cells at a low concentration. Thus, disclosed is a novel synthetic compound, a bis(arylmethylidene)acetone, which has both of an excellent anti-tumor activity and a chemo-preventive activity. A bis(arylmethylidene)acetone (i.e., a derivative having a curcumin skeleton) which is an anti-tumor compound and has a chemo-preventive activity is synthesized and screened. A derivative having enhanced anti-tumor activity and chemo-preventive activity can be synthesized.
