(2E)-3-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (DPHP) was synthesized by the reaction 4(dimethylamino) benzaldehyde with 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl) ethanone under microwave irradiation. Structure of DPHP was conformed by 1H and s

A series of hydroxy-substituted chalcone oxime derivatives were synthesized. These compounds were then evaluated for their inhibitory activities on tyrosinase and melanogenesis in murine B16F10 melanoma cells. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, and HRMS. Two of the compounds exhibited much higher tyrosinase inhibitory activities (IC50 values of 4.77 and 7.89 μM, respectively) than the positive control, kojic acid (IC50: 22.25 μM). Kinetic studies revealed them to act as competitive tyrosinase inhibitors with their Ki values of 5.25 and 8.33 μM, respectively. Both the compounds inhibited melanin production and tyrosinase activity in B16 cells. Docking results confirmed that the active inhibitors strongly interacted with the mushroom tyrosinase residues.

This work describes the systematic study of the structure-luminescence relationship of 15 hydroxy-chalcones directly in the crystal state. Chalcones are easily assembled at the gram scale allowing for efficient variation of their substitution motifs. Our molecule variants combine two modes of fluorescence generation, ESIPT and ICT, both known for their potential to achieve significant quantum yields even with emission in the red to near infrared, a region preferred for technologies as diverse as optoelectronics and chemical sensing. Quantum yields as high as 48% (at 665 nm) and emission wavelengths in the deep red region (710 nm, 5%) were achieved with variants equipped with a strained amino substituent in the donor portion (azetidinyl). Systematic XRD analysis of large monocrystals allowed for the identification of the subtle interplay of several inter- and intra-molecular parameters in achieving such performances, be it intramolecular planarity, non-classical H-bonds, and stacking modes.

Chalcones and their derivatives exhibit a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, including antiproliferative activities. Accordingly, they are deemed robust anticancer candidates for cytotoxicity assays. Herein, we synthesized and characterized fou
