A compound of formula (I) or a pharmacologically acceptable prodrug or salt thereof which exhibits excellent antifungal activity: wherein Ar1 represents a phenyl group or the like; Ar2 represents a phenylene group or the like. X represents a sulfur atom or a methylene group. R1 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-3 alkyl group; R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-3 alkyl group; and R3 represents an optionally substituted C6-10 aryl group or the like. Fungal infections may be prevented and/or treated by administering said compound (I) or said prodrug or salt thereof.

A series of 2'-substituted chalcone derivatives has been found to show potent inhibition of the production of IL-1β from human peripheral blood monocytes stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), with IC50 values in the 0.2-5.0-μM range. Some members of the series have also shown inhibition of septic shock induced in mice by injection of LPS, although with low potency. Qualitative structure-activity relationships have shown that the enone is required for activity, which may be mediated by conjugate addition of a biological nucleophile to the chalcone. Electron-poor aromatic rings β to the ketone give enhanced potency. Although electronic effects in the other ring (directly attached to the ketone) are minimal, this ring must possess an ortho substituent for good activity without cytotoxicity, suggesting a degree of selectivity which would not be expected for simple, nonspecific alkylating agents.
