摘要: A 175-member chalcone library was designed and synthesized from seven differently substituted acetophenones (A(1)-A(7)) 25 aryl or heteroaryl aldehydes (B(1)-B(25)). Potential lead compounds were identified by deconvolution of a two-dimensional matrix via positional scanning, the members most-active sub-libraries screened against crown-gall tumors with aid potato-disc assay. The resulting hits gave rise to significant antitumor activities, no antibacterial effect on tumor-producing bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Two structures, (2E)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (A(1)B(9)) hydroxy analogue (2E)-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (A(2)B(9)), are promising candidates be developed into highly effective anticancer chemotherapeutics.
