Two series of new quinolinyl chalcones containing a pyrazole group, 3a-f and 4a-r, have been synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation of the derivatives of 2-methyl-3-acetylquinoline with either substituted 1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde or 5-chloro-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde in 76-93% yield under ultrasonic method. The compounds were characterized using IR, H-1 NMR and ESI-MS spectroscopic methods and, for representative compounds, by X-ray crystallography. An E-configuration about the C=C ethylene bond has been established via H-1 NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. These compounds show promising anti-microbial properties, with 4a and 3e being the most potent against bacterial and fungal strains, respectively and the methoxy substituted compounds showed moderate anti-oxidant activity.
