Heterocyclic compounds are an important class of in the field pharmaceutical and synthetic organic chemistry. The Schiff bases contain azomethine linkages which obtained by condensation aldehyde/ketone with amines. Among various types bases, chalcone-based play a vital role treatment ailments applications, can be synthesized using different chalcones as starting materials. These were techniques...

The induction of unscheduled DNA synthesis in primary cultures of urothelial cells from rats, mice, and dogs by nitrofurans and arylamines and their derivatives was examined. Electron microscopy of the culture from rat cells showed the characteristics of epithelial cells. The cultured cells were exposed to the test chemicals in a serum-free medium containing 10 mM hydroxyurea and [3H]thymidine ...

Chalcone synthase [naringenin-chalcone synthase; malonyl-CoA:4-coumaroyl-CoA malonyltransferase (cyclizing), E.C. 2.3.1.74], the key enzyme of flavonoid pathways that was believed to be soluble, has been localized on ribosome-bearing endoplasmic reticulum membranes in the epidermis of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum M.) hypocotyls. Enzyme activity measurement and immunoblots of buckwheat hypoco...

Chalcone, (2E)-1,3-Diphenylprop-2-en-1-one, and its synthetic derivatives are known to possess anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study, we prepared a novel synthetic chalcone compound, (E)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(2-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one name (YJI-7), and investigated its inhibitory effects on endotoxin-stimulated production of reactive oxygen spec...

The condensation reaction of aceto-phenone (1-phenyl-ethan-1-one) with 2-nitro-benzaldehyde in the molten state yielded the expected chalcone, (E)-3-(2-nitro-phen-yl)-1-phenyl-prop-2-en-1-one, and, unexpectedly, the title compound, C30H22N2O6, which results from the syn head-to-head [2 + 2] cyclo-addition of the chalcone. The mol-ecular structure of the dimer shows that the four benzene rings o...
