A series of new isoliquiritigenin (ISL) derivatives were synthesized and evaluated as dualinhibitors for amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregation and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). It was found that all these synthetic compounds inhibited Aβ (1–42) aggregation effectively with their IC50 values ranged from 2.2 ± 1.5 μM to 23.8 ± 2.0 μM. These derivatives also showed inhibitory activity to 5-LO with their IC50 values
