Background: Chalcones constitute one of the major classes of natural products belonging to the flavonoid family, and they have been reported as having a range of important therapeutic activities, including some chalcones are effective as antimicrobial agents. Currently, the search for new structures with antimicrobial activity has been intensified due to the emergence of many strains resistant to antibiotics currently used to treat infectious diseases. Method: 3 chalcone series (amino, acetamido and nitrochalcones) were prepared (23 compounds) and evaluated for their antimicrobial and cytotoxic potential. The effects of substituents on their respective activities also was evaluated. Results & Conclusion: The results showed that 4 aminochalcones (2, 4, 8, 9), 3 acetoamidochalcones (10, 14, 18) and 3 nitrochalcones (20, 22, 23), exhibited antifungal effects. The aminochalcones were more toxic than the acetamidochalcones, while the nitrochalcones did not present any toxic effect. It was verified that there seems to be structure-activity correlation in some electron-donating and withdrawing substituents groups in rings A and B of the synthetized chalcone analogues and its antifungal and cytotoxic activity.

Sixteen substituted styryl 3,4-dichlorophenyl ketones [(2E)-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones] were synthesized using eco-friendly benign stereoselective crossed-aldol reaction. They are characterized by their analytical, infrared, NMR and m

Research into the anti-tumor properties of chalcones has received significant attention over the last few years Two novel large series of α-bromoacryloylamido chalcones 1a-m and 2a-k containing a pair of Michael acceptors in their structures, corresponding to the α-bromoacryloyl moiety and the α,β-unsaturated ketone system of the chalcone framework, were synthesized and evaluated for antiproliferative activity against five cancer cell lines. Such hybrid derivatives demonstrated significantly increased anti-tumor activity compared with the corresponding amino chalcones. The most promising lead molecules were 1k, 1m and 2j, which had the highest activity toward the five cell lines. Flow cytometry with K562 cells showed that the most active compounds resulted in a large proportion of the cells entering in the apoptotic sub-G0-G1 peak. Moreover, compound 1k induced apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway and activated caspase-3.

Fourteen 10-phenothiazines (IV) have been synthesized via condensation of 10-hydrazino-acetylphenothiazine with substituted benzalacetophenones.These compounds inhibit 33-86percent in vitro activity of rat brain pyruvate oxidase and afford protection against pentylenetetrazol induced seizures in albino mice.However, their anticonvulsant properties are found to be independent of their pyruvate oxidase inhibitory activity.
