Synthesis of a Natural Chalcone and Its Prenyl Analogs – Evaluation of Tumor Cell Growth‐Inhibitory Activities, and Effects on Cell Cycle and Apoptosis
1 Jun 2012
Abstract excerpt
Six prenyl (=3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl) chalcones (=1,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-ones), 2-7, and one natural non-prenylated chalcone, 1, have been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro growth-inhibitory activity against three human tumor cell lines. A pronounced dose-dependent growth-inhibitory effect was observed for all prenylated derivatives, except for 7. The chalcone possessing one prenyloxy group at C(2'),...
