A Review on Chemistry, Synthesis and Biological Applications of Chalcone-based Schiff Bases
Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds are an important class of compounds in the field of pharmaceutical and synthetic organic chemistry. The Schiff bases contain azomethine linkages which are obtained by the condensation of aldehyde/ketone with amines. Among the various types of Schiff bases, the chalcone-based Schiff bases play a vital role in the treatment of various ailments and various applications, which can be synthesized by using different types of chalcones as the starting materials. These types of compounds were synthesized by using various techniques like conventional means of synthesis, microwave-assisted reaction, heterocyclic catalyst-mediated synthesis and also by means of trituration. The chalcone or bis-chalcone-based Schiff bases and their derivatives contain -C=N linkage which exhibits various activities including antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, antidiabetic and immunosuppressant activities. Beyond these activities, these types of Schiff bases are also used in various chemical industries and fluorescent sensors, which also play a major role in the field of synthetic organic chemistry and coordination chemistry as intermediates. This review discusses the numerous synthetic strategies along with their applications in the field of medicine. Thus, this review will be helpful in developing more effective drug-like scaffolds for use in future drug design.
