Abstract
A library of 25-membered chalcones was prepared by parallel synthesis. Substituted acetophenones and benzaldehydes were condensed using the Claisen-Schmidt base-catalyzed aldol condensation. Several chalcones showed in vitro antiparasitic activity against Giardia lamblia. The highest activity observed for the IC(50) values were 12.72, 15.05 and 15.31 microg/mL, respectively; these are potential leads for the development of antigiardial compounds.Entities:
