What is trans-Chalcone?

Description

trans-Chalcone is an open chain flavonoid that may prevent lung and forestomach cancer.

Chemical properties

Trans-Chalcone is a yellowish crystals. M.P. 58℃. (trans-isomer). M .P. 46℃. (cis-isomer).Sp.Gr. 1.07 (liquid).Insoluble in water, soluble in alcohol (poorly) and oils.

The Uses of trans-Chalcone

trans-Chalcone is a positive allosteric modulator of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and exhibits antioxidant activity.

What are the applications of Application

Chalcone is an open chain flavonoid that may prevent lung and forestomach cancer

What are the applications of Application

trans-Chalcone was used in the synthesis of cis and trans diphenyl cyclopropane. It was also used in screening of surface adsorbed species of isobutybenzene and 4-isobutylacetophenone on bulk fosfotungstic Wells-Dawson acid (H6P2W18O62.xH2O).

Preparation

trans-Chalcones have been obtained in good yields and selectivities following an environmentally friendly methodology by using montmorillonite KSF as a reusable heterogeneous catalyst.
