A variety of chalcones were synthesized in good yields by the activated charcoal-mediated aldol reactions between benzaldehydes and acetophenones catalyzed by NaOH in water. 2,6-Bis((E)-benzylidene)cyclohexan-1-ones were prepared by the aldol reactions between benzaldehydes and cyclohexanone. Activated charcoal could be recycled five times without the significant decrease of yields.

A new series of pyrazole, phenylpyrazole, and pyrazoline analogs of diarylpentanoids (excluding compounds 3a, 4a, 5a, and 5b) was pan-assay interference compounds-filtered and synthesized via the reaction of diarylpentanoids with hydrazine monohydrate and phenylhydrazine. Each analog was evaluated for its anti-inflammatory ability via the suppression of nitric oxide (NO) on IFN-γ/LPS-activated RAW264.7 macrophage cells. The compounds were also investigated for their inhibitory capability toward acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), using a modification of Ellman's spectrophotometric method. The most potent NO inhibitor was found to be phenylpyrazole analog 4c, followed by 4e, when compared with curcumin. In contrast, pyrazole 3a and pyrazoline 5a were found to be the most selective and effective BChE inhibitors over AChE. The data collected from the single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of compound 5a were then applied in a docking simulation to determine the potential binding interactions that were responsible for the anti-BChE activity. The results obtained signify the potential of these pyrazole and pyrazoline scaffolds to be developed as therapeutic agents against inflammatory conditions and Alzheimer's disease.

Different 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoline derivatives 2a-c, 3-c, 4a-f, 6a-c, 7a-f and 8a-d were prepared via condensation reaction of the appropriate chalcone 1a-c or 5a-c with various hydrazine derivatives. All compounds were screened for their cytotoxicity against breast MCF-7 cancer cell line and the normal fibroblasts WI-38. Thirteen compounds 2a, 3a, 3c, 4a-d, 6c, 7d, 7e, 8b, 8d and 8f revealed promising cytotoxicity against MCF-7 compared to the reference standard staurosporine and they were safe to the normal fibroblasts WI-38. In addition, compounds 3c, 6c, 7d, 8b and 8d elicited higher cytotoxicity than erlotinib and exhibited promising EGFR inhibitory activity at submicromolar level comparable to that of erlotinib except for compound 8b that may exert its cytotoxicity via another mechanism besides EGFR inhibition. Molecular docking of 3c, 6c, 7d, 8b and 8d in the active site of EGFR confirmed the obtained results.
