“…Meanwhile, biological activity results showed that both natural and synthetic chromone compounds had a wide range of biological activities, such as antifungal [ 6 , 7 ], antibacterial [ 6 ], anticancer [ 8 ], and antiviral [ 9 ] activity. Thiochromanone, a kind of chromone compound, is an important substance in the synthesis of various active molecules that are extensively used in the intermediate skeleton of drugs and has attracted more and more attention due to their extensive biological activities, including antiviral [ 10 ], antibacterial [ 11 , 12 ], antifungal [ 11 , 13 , 14 , 15 ], herbicidal [ 16 , 17 ], and insecticidal [ 18 ] activity. Therefore, due to its excellent features of low toxicity and easy to be synthetized and derived, thiochromanone is considered to be a leading compound to develop promising agrochemical candidates, which will become a reality.…”
