Abstract

Abstract:: Chalcone is a bioactive flavonoid contained in various plants such as Angelica archangelica, Pueraria lobata, and Glycyrrhiza glabra. It has been studied extensively in the field of pharmaceutical sciences due to its significant role in therapeutic potential including antibacterial, antiinflammatory, analgesic, cytotoxic, and anti-tumour properties. A plenty of study indicated numerous chalcone derivatives exhibit enhanced potency and reduced toxicity as compared to natural analogues. In this review, we introduce chalcone and its various derivatives including 1- naphthylacetophenone, 2-benzimidazolyl, 2-furoyloxy, 3-(furan-2-yl)pyrazol-4-yl, 4'-alkoxy, 4- anilinoquinolinyl, 4-aryloxyquinazolines, acridine, benzamide, benzenesulfonamide, bischalcone, cinnamoylthiazoles, D-glucosyl azides, dialkylamino, dihydropyrimidinone, indole, isoquinoline, ligustrazine, morpholinothiazole, naphthalene, quinoline, sulphonamide, thiazoleimidazopyridine, thienyl, thiophene, triazines, triazole-benzimidazole, tri-methoxyphenyl, and α- trifluoromethyl hybrids and display their promising activity against various cancer cell lines, such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, cervical cancer, and liver cancer.
