A review of anti-infective and anti-inflammatory chalcones

Photoactive assemblies of organic compounds and biomolecules: drug–protein supramolecular systems

“…This is the case of chalcones, some of which are flavonoids with antiinflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, antitumor and antiparasitic activity. 55 Licochalcone A (LCA) is a member of this family, whose interaction with HSA and BSA has been investigated. 56,57 In homogeneous media, LCA displays three absorption maxima corresponding to the neutral (382 nm), monoanionic (401 nm) and dianionic (457 nm) forms.…”

Crystal structure of 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C17H16O2

“…Chalcones and their derivatives are interesting materials for their biological activities such as anti-viral, anti-malarial, anti-cancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antileishmanial, anti-tubercular, anti-hyperglycemic properties [6][7][8][9][10][11]. They are also used in different applications such as agriculture [12], cosmetics and manufacture of pesticides [13].…”

Novel Chalcone–Thiazole Hybrids as Potent Inhibitors of Drug Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

“…8 They are of special interest due to their pronounced antimicrobial activities. 9,10 However, thiazole ring is found to be a common structural component in a large number of biological agents.…”
