Antimitotic and Antiproliferative Activities of Chalcones: Forward Structure–Activity Relationship
摘要:
A series of 59 chalcones was prepared and evaluated for the antimitotic effect against K562 leukemia cells. The most active chalcones were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against a panel of I I human and murine cell cancer lines. We found that three chalcones were of great interest as potential antimitotic drugs. In vivo safety studies conducted on one of the most active chalcones revealed that the compound was safe, allowing further in vivo antitumor evaluation.

Silica gel supported InBr3 or InCl3 (15–20 mol %) were explored as a new solid-support catalysts for the facile and efficient oxidation, under solvent free conditions, of 2′-hydroxychalcones and flavanones to yield the corresponding flavones in >80% yield. The catalysts are easily prepared, stable, and efficient under mild reaction conditions.
