Chalcones: compounds possessing a diversity in applications
نویسنده
چکیده
Chalcones are a class of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds that form the central core for a variety of naturally occurring biologically active compounds. They exhibit tremendous potential to act as a pharmacological agent. Besides their various pharmacological activities, chalcones have been explored for different optical applications including second harmonic generation materials in non-linear optics, fluorescent probe for sensing different molecules.
