flavonoids, chromones, 3-hetarylchromones, nucleophilic substitution, cyclization, reduction/hydrogenation, 3-hetarylchroman-4-onesAbstract

Articles reporting on the synthesis and biological activity of 3-hetarylchroman-4-ones are reviewed. The following preparative methods to 3-hetarylchroman-4-ones - nucleophilic substitution in 3-bromochroman-4-ones, cyclization of 2-hydroxy-α-hetarylacetophenones, reduction/hydrogenation of 3-azahetarylchromones, their benefits and disadvantages are described. The biological activity of 3-hetarylchromanones is also surveyed.
