Compounds based on CHALCONE. They are important intermediates in the formation of FLAVONOIDS.
'Chalcone' is a term used in medicinal chemistry to describe a class of compounds that are synthesized as intermediates during the production of flavonoids, which have been studied for their potential anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties.
A plant genus of the family Apiaceae.
A plant genus of the family SALICACEAE. Members contain salicin, which yields SALICYLIC ACID.
A plant genus of the family FABACEAE. Members contain ISOFLAVONES, some of which show molluscicidal and schistosomicidal activity. Some species of Pongamia have been reclassified to this genus and some to DERRIS.
A group of FLAVONOIDS characterized with a 4-ketone.
The outer layer of the woody parts of plants.
Luciferases from RENILLA that oxidizes certain LUMINESCENT AGENTS to cause emission of PHOTONS.
The location of the atoms, groups or ions relative to one another in a molecule, as well as the number, type and location of covalent bonds.
The relationship between the chemical structure of a compound and its biological or pharmacological activity. Compounds are often classed together because they have structural characteristics in common including shape, size, stereochemical arrangement, and distribution of functional groups.
Substances that are destructive to protozoans.
A group of phenyl benzopyrans named for having structures like FLAVONES.
