4-Nitrochalcone

Advance your organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry research with 4-Nitrochalcone (CAS No.: 1222-98-6, CAT No.: SRCN-005). This compound is a chalcone derivative featuring a nitro group at the para position of one aromatic ring, connected via an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl system to another phenyl group. It is widely studied for its biological activities, including antiproliferative, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects, and serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of pharmacologically active molecules.

The molecular formula is C₁₅H₁₁NO₃ with a molecular weight of approximately 253.25 g/mol. 4-Nitrochalcone typically appears as a yellow to brown crystalline powder with a melting point range of 158–160 °C. It shows moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol, acetone, and chloroform, and limited water solubility. Proper storage under cool, dry, and light-protected conditions is recommended.
