Abstract
Aim: Chromones are promising for anticancer drug development. Methods & results: 12 chromone-based compounds were synthesized and tested against cancer cell lines. Compound 8 showed the highest cytotoxicity (LC50 3.2 μM) against colorectal cancer cells, surpassing 5-fluorouracil (LC50 4.2 μM). It suppressed colony formation, induced cell cycle arrest and triggered apoptotic cell death, confirmed by staining and apoptosis markers. Cell death was accompanied by enhanced reactive oxygen species formation and modulation of the autophagic machinery (autophagy marker light chain 3B (LC3B); adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK); protein kinase B (PKB); UNC-51-like kinase (ULK)-1; and ULK2). Molecular docking and dynamic simulations revealed that compound 8 directly binds to ULK1. Conclusion: Compound 8 is a promising lead for autophagy-modulating anti-colon cancer drugs.

Abstract
Emerging threats to human health require a concerted effort to search for new treatment therapies. One of the biggest challenges is finding medicines with few or no side effects. Natural products have historically contributed to major advances in the field of pharmacotherapy, as they offer special characteristics compared to conventional synthetic molecules. Interest in natural products is being revitalized, in a continuous search for lead structures that can be used as models for the development of new medicines by the pharmaceutical industry. Chromone and chromanones are recognized as privileged structures and useful templates for the design of diversified therapeutic molecules with potential pharmacological interest. Chromones and chromanones are widely distributed in plants and fungi, and significant biological activities, namely antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, etc., have been reported for these compounds, suggesting their potential as lead drug candidates. This review aims to update the literature published over the last 6 years (2018-2023) regarding the natural occurrence and biological activity of chromones and chromanones, highlighting the recent findings and the perspectives that they hold for future research and applications namely in health, cosmetic, and food industries.

Abstract
In consideration of the chromones' therapeutic potential and anticancer activity, a new series of chromanone derivatives have been synthesized through a straightforward reaction between 6-formyl-7-hydroxy-5-methoxy-2-methylchromone (2) and various organic active compounds. The cytotoxic activity of the newly synthesized congeners was investigated against MCF-7 (human breast cancer), HCT-116 (colon cancer), HepG2 (liver cancer), and normal skin fibroblast cells (BJ1). The obtained data indicated that compounds 14b, 17, and 19 induce cytotoxic activity in the breast MCF7, while compounds 6a, 6b, 11 and 14c showed highly potent activity in the colon cancer cell lines. Overall, the results demonstrate that the potential cytotoxic effects of the studied compounds may be based on their ability to induce DNA fragmentation in cancer cell lines, down-regulate the expression level of CDK4 as well as the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 and up-regulate the expression of the pro-apoptotic genes P53 and Bax. Furthermore, compounds 14b and 14c showed a dual mechanism of action by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. The docking studies showed that the binding affinity of the most active cytotoxic compounds within the active pocket of the CDK4 enzyme is stronger due to hydrophobic and H-bonding interactions. These results were found to be consistent with the experimental results.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer, and the limited therapeutic options show poor efficacy in patients, associated to severe side effects and development of resistance. Considering that chromene-based scaffolds proved to be attractive candidates for cancer therapy, herein we prepared new chromeno[2,3-d]pyrimidinone derivatives by a simple two step procedure, starting from the reaction of cyanoacetamide and a salicylaldehyde. A cell viability screening in several breast cancer cell lines allowed to identify two promising compounds with IC50 values in the low micromolar range for TNBC cells. These chromenes inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest and triggered cell death through apoptosis. In vivo studies revealed a safe profile in invertebrate and vertebrate animal models and confirmed their capacity to inhibit tumor growth in the CAM model, inducing significant tumor regression after 4 days of treatment. The two compounds identified in this study are promising drug candidates for TNBC treatment and valuable hits for future optimization, using the versatile synthetic platform that was developed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Skin cancer is often fatal, which motivates new therapy avenues. Recent advances in cancer treatment are indicative of the importance of combination treatments in oncology. Previous studies have identified small molecule-based therapies and redox-based technologies, including photodynamic therapy or medical gas plasma, as promising candidates to target skin cancer. OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify effective combinations of experimental small molecules with cold gas plasma for therapy in dermato-oncology. METHODS Promising drug candidates were identified after screening an in-house 155-compound library using 3D skin cancer spheroids and high content imaging. Combination effects of selected drugs and cold gas plasma were investigated with respect to oxidative stress, invasion, and viability. Drugs that had combined well with cold gas plasma were further investigated in vascularized tumor organoids in ovo and a xenograft mouse melanoma model in vivo. RESULTS The two chromone derivatives Sm837 and IS112 enhanced cold gas plasma-induced oxidative stress, including histone 2A.X phosphorylation, and further reduced proliferation and skin cancer cell viability. Combination treatments of tumor organoids grown in ovo confirmed the principal anti-cancer effect of the selected drugs. While one of the two compounds exerted severe toxicity in vivo, the other (Sm837) resulted in a significant synergistic anti-tumor toxicity at good tolerability. Principal component analysis of protein phosphorylation profiles confirmed profound combination treatment effects in contrast to the monotherapies. CONCLUSION We identified a novel compound that, combined with topical cold gas plasma-induced oxidative stress, represents a novel and promising treatment approach to target skin cancer.

Abstract
Xanthone-chromanone homo- or heterodimers are regarded as a novel class of topoisomerase (Topo) inhibitors; however, limited information about these compounds is currently available. Here, 14 new (1-14) and 6 known tetrahydroxanthone chromanone homo- and heterodimers (15-20) are reported as isolated from Penicillium chrysogenum C-7-2-1. Their structures and absolute configurations were unambiguously demonstrated by a combination of spectroscopic data, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, modified Mosher's method, and electronic circular dichroism analyses. Plausible biosynthetic pathways are proposed. For the first time, it was discovered that tetrahydroxanthones can convert to chromanones in water, whereas chromone dimerization does not show this property. Among them, compounds 5, 7, 8, and 16 exhibited significant cytotoxicity against H23 cell line with IC50 values of 6.9, 6.4, 3.9, and 2.6 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Brasiliensic acid (Bras) is a chromanone isolated from Calophyllum brasiliense Cambèss. bark extracts with confirmed potential activity on gastric ulcer and Helicobacter pylori infection. This study aimed to investigate the in vitro and in vivo toxicity of Bras and molecular docking studies on its interactions with the H. pylori virulence factors and selected gastric cancer-related proteins. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by alamarBlue© assay, genotoxicity by micronucleus and comet assays, and on cell cycle by flow cytometry, using Chinese hamster epithelial ovary cells. Bras was not cytotoxic to CHO-K1 cells, and caused no chromosomal aberrations, nor altered DNA integrity. Furthermore, Bras inhibited damages to DNA by H2O2 at 1.16 µM. No cell cycle arrest was observed, but apoptosis accounted for 31.2% of the cell death observed in the CHO-K1 at 24 h incubation of the IC50. Oral acute toxicity by Hippocratic screening test in mice showed no relevant behavioral change/mortality seen up to 1,000 mg/kg. The molecular docking approach indicated potential interactions between Bras and the various targets for peptic ulcer and gastric cancer, notably CagA virulence factor of H. pylori and VEGFR-2. In conclusion, Bras is apparently safe and an optimization for Bras can be considered for gastric ulcer and cancer.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
A novel cascade Pd(II)-catalyzed endo-dig cycloisomerization and olefination reaction of 2-benzyl-3-alkynyl chromones with activated/unactivated alkenes has been developed for the synthesis of fused oxatricyclic compounds. This concise one-pot synthetic approach was applied to the difunctionalization of unbiased alkynes based on 2-benzyl-3-(alkynyl)-4H-chromen-4-one via O-attack endo-dig cycloisomerization, followed by olefination with both activated and unactivated alkenes.

Abstract
Gram-negative Vibrio species are major foodborne pathogens often associated with seafood intake that causes gastroenteritis. On food surfaces, biofilm formation by Vibrio species enhances the resistance of bacteria to disinfectants and antimicrobial agents. Hence, an efficient antibacterial and antibiofilm approach is urgently required. This study examined the antibacterial and antivirulence effects of chromones and their 26 derivatives against V. parahaemolyticus and V. harveyi. 6-Bromo-3-formylchromone (6B3FC) and 6-chloro-3-formylchromone (6C3FC) were active antibacterial and antibiofilm compounds. Both 6B3FC and 6C3FC exhibited minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 20 µg/mL for planktonic cell growth and dose-dependently inhibited biofilm formation. Additionally, they decreased swimming motility, protease activity, fimbrial agglutination, hydrophobicity, and indole production at 20 µg/mL which impaired the growth of the bacteria. Furthermore, the active compounds could completely inhibit the slimy substances and microbial cells on the surface of the squid and shrimp. The most active compound 6B3FC inhibited the gene expression associated in quorum sensing and biofilm formation (luxS, opaR), pathogenicity (tdh), and membrane integrity (vmrA) in V. parahaemolyticus. However, toxicity profiling using seed germination and Caenorhabditis elegans models suggests that 6C3FC may have moderate effect at 50 µg/mL while 6B3FC was toxic to the nematodes 20-100 µg/mL. These findings suggest chromone analogs, particularly two halogenated formylchromones (6B3FC and 6C3FC), were effective antimicrobial and antibiofilm agents against V. parahaemolyticus in the food and pharmaceutical sectors.

Abstract
Fifteen new chromones, sadivamones A-E (1-5), cimifugin monoacetate (6), sadivamones F-N (7-15), together with fifteen known chromones (16-30), were isolated from the ethyl acetate portions of 70% ethanol extract of Saposhnikovia divaricata (Turcz.) Schischk roots. The structures of the isolates were determined using 1D/2D NMR data and electron circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Meanwhile, LPS induced RAW264.7 inflammatory cell model was used to determine the potential anti-inflammatory activity of all the isolated compounds in vitro. The results showed that compounds 2, 8, 12-13, 18, 20-22, 24, and 27 significantly inhibited the production of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced NO in macrophages. To determine the signaling pathways involved in the suppression of NO production by compounds 8, 12 and 13, we investigated ERK and c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) expression by western blot analysis. Further mechanistic studies demonstrated that compounds 12 and 13 inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK and the activation of ERK and JNK signaling in RAW264.7 cells via MAPK signaling pathways. Taken together, compounds 12 and 13 may be valuable candidates for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Four new chromone compounds diaporspchromanones A-C (1-3) and diaporspchromanone H (4), together with three known compounds (5-7) were separated from the marine derived fungus Diaporthe sp. XW12-1. The structures of the new compounds, including their absolute configurations, were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and the Mosher's ester method. Among them, diaporspchromanones A-C (1-3) possess a 3-substituted-chroman-4-one skeleton, which are rarely found in natural sources. In the bioassays, all compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory activity against lipopolysaccharide-activated nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 2 and 3 showed potent anti-inflammatory effects than the positive control (indomethacin, IC50, 70.33 ± 0.95 μM) (p < 0.05) with IC50 values of 19.06 ± 3.60 and 9.56 ± 0.18 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Cnidium japonicum is a biennial halophyte found in the salt marshes and shores of Korea and widely used in traditional Korean medicine as an ingredient. This study investigated and compared the antimelanogenic effect of solventpartitioned fractions of C. japonicum extract (CJEFs) in a B16F10 mouse melanoma cell model, focusing on tyrosinase activity and production. Melanogenesis is the process in which skin pigment melanin is produced through tyrosinase activity. Overproduction of melanin is the primary reason behind several skin disorders such as freckles, spots, and hyperpigmentation. The antimelanogenic capacity of CJEFs was initially screened by their tyrosinase inhibitory effects, prevention of dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) oxidation, and suppression of melanin production. The inhibition of tyrosinase activity and DOPA oxidation by CJEFs was suggested to be related to the downregulation of microphthalmia-associated transcription factor, tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1, and tyrosinase-related protein-2, which was confirmed using mRNA and protein expression levels. Moreover, the glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta- and cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein-related signaling pathways were inhibited by treatment with CJEFs, indicating their action mechanism. All the tested CJEFs exerted similar effects on tyrosinase activity and production. However, among those, 85% aq. MeOH was the most active fraction to suppress the signaling pathway that produces tyrosinase. These results suggest that especially the MeOH fraction of C. japonicum extract serves as a potential source of bioactive substances, with effective antimelanogenesis properties.

Abstract
A mangrove is a unique ecosystem with abundant resources, in which fungi are an indispensable microbial part. Numerous mangrove fungi-derived secondary metabolites are considerable sources of novel bioactive substances, such as polyketides, terpenoids, alkaloids, peptides, etc., which arouse people's interest in the search for potential natural anti-tumor drugs. This review includes a total of 44 research publications that described 110 secondary metabolites that were all shown to be anti-tumor from 39 mangrove fungal strains belonging to 18 genera that were acquired from the South China Sea between 2016 and 2022. To identify more potential medications for clinical tumor therapy, their sources, unique structures, and cytotoxicity qualities were compiled. This review could serve as a crucial resource for the research status of mangrove fungal-derived natural products deserving of further development.

Abstract
2-(2-Phenylethyl)chromone derivatives are regarded as key components in agarwood. An oxygen-containing heterocycle with a benzoannelated γ-pyrone moiety form the bioactive core of 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones. With different substituents and positions, 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromone derivatives exhibit diverse biological properties, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities. In this review, we summarized the studies (from January 1976 to September 2021) on phytochemistry, bioactivity and quality control of 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones. These studies aimed to clarify the chemical specificity, diversity and structure-activity relationship of 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones. In addition, we assumed that diverse factors such as tree species, induction methods and formation time contribute to the chemical diversity of 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones. Furthermore, this review contends that different types of 2-(2-phenylethyl)chromones should be utilized in the quality control methods of agarwood.

Abstract
A total of eleven new dimeric chromanones, paecilins F-P (2–12), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Xylaria curta E10, along with four known analogs (1, 13–15). Their structures and absolute configurations were determined by extensive experimental spectroscopic methods, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and equivalent circulating density (ECD) calculations. In addition, the structure of paecilin A, which was reported to be a symmetric C8-C8′ dimeric pattern, was revised by analysis of the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compound 1 showed antifungal activity against the human pathogenic fungus Candida albicans with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 16 μg/mL, and Compounds 8 and 10 showed antibacterial activity against the gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli with the same minimum inhibitory concentration of 16 μg/mL.

Abstract
In this paper, the organocatalytic asymmetric Michael addition/hemiketalization cascade reactions between hydroxymaleimides and 2-hydroxynitrostyrenes were developed, which provided a new protocol for building a chiral ring-fused chroman skeleton. This squaramide-catalyzed cascade reaction provided chiral chroman-fused pyrrolidinediones with three contiguous stereocenters in good to high yields (up to 88%), with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) at −16 °C. Moreover, a scale-up synthesis was also carried out, and a possible reaction mechanism was proposed.

Abstract
Agarwood, popularly known as oudh or gaharu, is a fragrant resinous wood of high commercial value, traded worldwide and primarily used for its distinctive fragrance in incense, perfumes, and medicine. This fragrant wood is created when Aquilaria trees are wounded and infected by fungi, producing resin as a defense mechanism. The depletion of natural agarwood caused by overharvesting amidst increasing demand has caused this fragrant defensive resin of endangered Aquilaria to become a rare and valuable commodity. Given that instances of natural infection are quite low, artificial induction, including biological inoculation, is being conducted to induce agarwood formation. A long-term investigation could unravel insights contributing toward Aquilaria being sustainably cultivated. This review will look at the different methods of induction, including physical, chemical, and biological, and compare the production, yield, and quality of such treatments with naturally formed agarwood. Pharmaceutical properties and medicinal benefits of fragrance-associated compounds such as chromones and terpenoids are also discussed.

Abstract
A series of 2-(haloalkyl)-3-azidomethyl and 6-azido chromones has been synthetized, characterized and studied by theoretical (DFT calculations) and spectroscopic methods (UV-Vis, NMR). The crystal structure of 3-azidomethyl-2-difluoromethyl chromone, determined by X-ray diffraction methods, shows a planar framework due to extended π-bond delocalization. Its molecular packing is stabilized by F···H, N···H and O···H hydrogen bonds, π···π stacking and C–O···π intermolecular interactions. Moreover, AIM, NCI and Hirshfeld analysis evidenced that azido moiety has a significant role in the stabilization of crystal packing through weak intermolecular interactions, where analysis of electronic density suggested closed-shell (CS) interatomic interactions.

Abstract
AbstractA 3‐formyl‐chromone‐appended zinc(II) intercalator drug candidate of the formulation [bis(chromone)(H 2 O)2 Zn(II)] was prepared as a potent anticancer agent and thoroughly characterized by multi‐spectroscopic and single X‐ray crystallographic studies. Preliminary binding studies of complex 1 with ct‐DNA/tRNA were carried out employing various complementary biophysical techniques and the corroborative results of these experiments suggested strong binding propensity via intercalation binding mode towards ct‐DNA/tRNA therapeutic targets, with higher preference for tRNA as quantified by binding constant { K b , K and K sv } parameters. The cleavage studies with pBR322 DNA were performed which implied that 1 cleaved the DNA by hydrolytic cleavage pathway which was further validated by T4 religation assay. Moreover, 1 was found to exhibit the tRNA cleavage behavior in a concentration and time‐dependent manner. The cytotoxicity of complex 1 was evaluated against Huh‐7, DU‐145 and the PNT2 cell lines by MTT assay. A dose‐dependent growth inhibition of the Huh‐7 and DU‐145 cells at low micromolar concentrations was observed and in another set of experiments, lipid peroxidation & glutathione (GSH) depletion were induced in the presence of the tested drug candidate. Interestingly, drug candidate 1 demonstrated selective cytotoxic activity for the DU‐145 cancer cell line with LC50 value of 3.2 μM which was further visualized by confocal microscopy.

[PMID: 35128679 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.14095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 01/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Cephalopod cuttlefish, Sepia pharaonis, has been considered as a commercially important resource, which is widely regarded as nutritious food in the southwest of Indian and Mediterranean coasts. Chemical analysis of the crude extract of S. pharaonis resulted in the isolation of an undescribed 2H-benzochromenone, pharachromenone, which was characterized as methyl-2″-(7-hydroxy-4-(5'-methylpent-5'-en-1'-yl-oxy-methyl)-2-oxo-2H-benzo[h]chromen-5-yl-methyl)-butanoate by mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectral experiments. Pharachromenone revealed effective biopotency against 5-lipoxygenase (IC50 1.85 mM) and cyclooxygenase-2 (IC50 0.52 mM) than that displayed by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen (IC50 4.36 mM, p < .05). Promising antioxidant property for pharachromenone (IC50 1.42-1.61 mM) compared with those exhibited by antioxidative agents butylated hydroxyl anisole (BHA) and α-tocopherol (IC50 1.40-1.90 mM) could conceivably validate its dual inhibition potential against 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2. Greater electronic parameters, lesser steric bulkiness, along with acceptable lipophilic-hydrophobic balance significantly contributed toward its promising anti-inflammatory activities. Molecular docking studies showing significantly greater inhibition constant (Ki) 8.24 nM and binding energy (-11.03 kcal/mol) of pharachromenone than the standard ibuprofen (Ki 4.65 μM, binding energy -7.27 kcal/mol) at the binding site of 5-lipoxygenase recognized its noncompetitive binding, which could describe the promising anti-inflammatory potential. Pharachromenone could be developed as a functional food component against oxidative stress-related inflammatory disorders. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The cuttlefish Sepia pharaonis (family Sepiidae) comprises a major share in the global fishery sector due to its culinary delicacy and nutritionally valued high-quality meat. Furthermore, cephalopod mollusks are gaining pharmaceutical acceptance as resources to derive bioactive compounds with therapeutic significance. Bioassay-guided chromatographic fractionation of crude extract of S. pharaonis could result in the isolation of a 2H-benzochromenone derivative, pharachromenone exhibiting potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This study recognized the therapeutic potential of a marine cuttlefish-originated food constituent against inflammatory conditions, and could be anticipated as a high-value functional food lead to minimize oxidative stress-related inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
Chromone has emerged as one of the most important synthetic scaffolds for antitumor activity, which promotes the development of candidate drugs with better activity. In this study, a series of nitrogen mustard derivatives of chromone were designed and synthesised, in order to discover promising anti-breast tumour candidates. Almost all target derivatives showed antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. In particular, methyl (S)-3-(4-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl)-2-(5-(((6-methoxy-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methyl)amino)-5-oxopentanamido)propanoate showed the most potent antiproliferative activity with IC50 values of 1.83 and 1.90 μM, respectively, and it also exhibited certain selectivity between tumour cells and normal cells. Further mechanism exploration against MDA-MB-231 cells showed that it possibly induced G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis by generating intracellular ROS and activating DNA damage. In addition, it also inhibited MDA-MB-231 cells metastasis, invasion and adhesion. Overall, methyl (S)-3-(4-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl)-2-(5-(((6-methoxy-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methyl)amino)-5-oxopentanamido)propanoate showed potent antitumor activities and relatively low side effects, and deserved further investigation.

Abstract
Novel 2-[2-(chroman-4-ylidene)hydrazinyl]-4/5-substituted thiazole derivatives (2a-i) were synthesized and investigated for their anticancer activity. Cytotoxic activity on A549 and NIH/3T3 cell lines was determined, most of the compounds exhibited high cytotoxic profile with selectivity. Selected compounds 2b, 2c, 2e, 2g, 2h, and 2i were tested to determine induction of apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and cell cycle arrest. The results showed that the compounds induced apoptosis intrinsically that they triggered loss of mitochondrial potential through increasing the accumulation of cells in G2/M. Besides, intrinsic apoptotic pathway was supported by down-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and up-regulation of proapoptotic protein Bax. Molecular docking study for compounds 2b, 2c, and 2g was promoted experimental outcomes.

Abstract
Cancer is a multifactorial disease with a convoluted genesis and progression. The emergence of multidrug resistance to presently be offered drug and relapse is by far, the most critical concern to tackle this deteriorating disease. Henceforth, there is undeniably an inflated necessity for safe, promising, and less harmful new anticancer drugs. Natural compounds from various sources like plants, animals, and microorganisms have occupied a center stage in drug discovery due to their tremendous chemical diversity and potential as therapeutic agents. Endophytic microbes are symbiotically associated with plants and have been proven to produce novel or analogues of host bioactive metabolites exhibiting a variety of biological activities including anticancer activity. This review emphasizes on structurally diverse unprecedented anticancer natural compounds that have been reported exclusively from endophytic fungi from 2016 to 2020. It covers chemical nature of metabolites, its fungal source associated with terrestrial, as well as marine plants and anticancer activity based on their cytotoxicity profile against various cancer cell lines. Many of these fungal metabolites with promising anticancer activity can be used as lead molecules for in silico experiments and deserve special attention from scientists for further in vitro and clinical research.

Abstract
Chemical investigation for the secondary metabolite of marine-derived fungus Aspergillus sp. LS57 resulted in the isolation of one new chromone named aspergilluone A (1) containing a chromone skeleton fused with an unusual hydrogenation cyclopentanoid ring, along with three known compounds 2-4. The structure of 1 was elucidated by 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses. Its absolute configuration was established by combining NMR quantum chemical calculations and comparison between the experimental and calculated circular dichroism (CD) curves. Additionally, the antibacterial assay of compound 1 was performed. As a result, compound 1 showed in vitro anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis with MIC value of 32 μg/mL, together with moderate antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (MIC values = 64 μg/mL), and exhibited feeble activity against gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and gram-negative pathogen Escherichia coli (both MICs = 128 μg/mL).

Abstract
AbstractTheoretical investigations of three pharmaceutically active chromone derivatives, (E)-3-((2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (TPC), (E)-3-((2-(2,4,6-trifluorophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (FHM) and(E)-3-((2-(perfluorophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (PFH) are reported. Molecular geometries, vibrational spectra, electronic properties and molecular electrostatic potential were investigated using density functional theory. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) study shows that the maximum of ellipticity parameters in the existing bonds in TPC, FHM and PFH, attributes to the bonds involving in aromatic region points toward the π-bond interactions in the molecules. Based on energy gap (1.870, 1.649 and 1.590 eV) and electrophilicity index (20.233, 22.581 and 23.203 eV) values of TPC, FHM and PFH, we can conclude that all molecules have more biological activity. The molecular electrostatic potential maps were calculated to provide information on the chemical reactivity of the molecule and also to describe the intermolecular interactions. All these studies including docking studies, help a lot in determining the biological activities of chromone derivatives. Activities of chromone derivatives are compared with 5-fluorouracil and azathioprine (antitumor, antiproliferative standards) and were found to be higher than reference ones.

Abstract
The genus Diaporthe and its anamorph Phomopsis are distributed worldwide in many ecosystems. They are regarded as potential sources for producing diverse bioactive metabolites. Most species are attributed to plant pathogens, non-pathogenic endophytes, or saprobes in terrestrial host plants. They colonize in the early parasitic tissue of plants, provide a variety of nutrients in the cycle of parasitism and saprophytism, and participate in the basic metabolic process of plants. In the past ten years, many studies have been focused on the discovery of new species and biological secondary metabolites from this genus. In this review, we summarize a total of 335 bioactive secondary metabolites isolated from 26 known species and various unidentified species of Diaporthe and Phomopsis during 2010-2019. Overall, there are 106 bioactive compounds derived from Diaporthe and 246 from Phomopsis, while 17 compounds are found in both of them. They are classified into polyketides, terpenoids, steroids, macrolides, ten-membered lactones, alkaloids, flavonoids, and fatty acids. Polyketides constitute the main chemical population, accounting for 64%. Meanwhile, their bioactivities mainly involve cytotoxic, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-algae, phytotoxic, and enzyme inhibitory activities. Diaporthe and Phomopsis exhibit their potent talents in the discovery of small molecules for drug candidates.

Abstract
Fused chromones are attracting increasing attention as novel therapeutic agents due to their wide distribution in nature, effective bioactivities and low toxicity. 6-Carbonyl-7-hydroxychromones proved to be versatile synthons for the synthesis of linear hetarenochromones by annulation of heterocycle to the chromone core. The present review is focused on the syntheses of furo[3,2-g]chromones, pyrano[3,2-g]chromones and some of their N-containing analogues, namely chromeno[6,7-d]isoxazoles, pyrano[3’,2’:6,7]chromeno[4,3-b]pyridine-5,11-diones and pyrano[3’,2’:6,7]chromeno[4,3-c]pyridine-5,11-diones based on the 7-hydroxy-6-formylchromones or 7-hydroxy-6-acetylchromones and shows the current state of research to date. The methods for the synthesis of the starting 7-hydroxy-6-formylchromones and 7-hydroxy-6-acetylchromones have been also mentioned. The biological activity of naturally occurring and modified synthetic linear hetarenochromones has been also represented.

Abstract
We report a protocol for the synthesis of 3-organyl-4-(organylchalcogenyl)isoquinoline-2-oxides via electrophilic cyclization between alkynylbenzaldoximes and diorganyl dichalcogenides promoted by Oxone. A total of 21 3-organyl-4-(organylchalcogenyl)isoquinoline-2-oxides were selectively obtained in yields of up 93% under an ultrasound irradiation condition in short reaction times (10-70 min). Additionally, the synthetic usefulness of the 3-phenyl-4-(phenylselanyl)isoquinoline-2-oxide was demonstrated in the annulation reaction with 1-(2-bromophenyl)-3-phenylprop-2-yn-1-one and in the deoxygenation reaction with phenylboronic acid.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Saposhnikovia divaricata (family Apiaceae) a traditional medicinal plant distributed in many provinces of China, is well known for the pharmaceutical value and has been used for rheumatic arthritis, and anxiety in children. Antiviral, antioxidant and antiproliferative activities were also mentioned. The application of this plant are recorded in the Chinese Medicine (CM) classical text the Shen Nong's Materia Medica (Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing). In this monograph S. divaricata (syn Radix Ledebouriella divaricata) is graded as a premium-grade herb, with their broad-spectrum of therapeutic applications for the treatment of cough, common cold, arthralgia, as well as in rheumatic disorders. AIM OF THE STUDY To isolate and identify chemical constituents (chromones and coumarins) from S. divaricata, collected in Buryatia and Mongolia and to study their in vitro anticancer activity against MEL-8, U-937, DU-145, MDA-MB-231 and ВТ-474 cell lines. MATERIALS AND METHODS An 40% aqueous ethanol extract of the roots of S. divaricata was prepared and further successively fractionated by extraction with petroleum ether, diethyl ether, tert-butyl methyl ether and ethyl acetate. The obtained extracts were subjected to a series of chromatographic separations on silica gel for isolation of individual compounds. Isolated compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity with respect to model cancer cell lines using the conventional MTT assays. RESULTS Total of 15 individual compounds: coumarins scopoletin 2, bergapten 3, isoimperatorin 4, marmesin 5, (+)-decursinol 9, (-)-praeruptorin B 10, oxypeucedanin hydrate 11, chromones: hamaudol 6, cimifugin 7, 5-О-methylvisamminol 8, chromone glycosides: prim-O-glucosylcimifugin 12, sec-O-glucosylhamaudol 13, 4'-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-5-О-methylvisamminol 14, 4'-O-β-D-glucopyranosylvisamminol (15) and also polyyne compound panaxinol 1 were isolated and characterized. The structure of dihydropyranocoumarin 10 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analyses. HPLC-UV method was used for determination of the content of most abundant chromones 7, 12 and 14 in the roots of S. divaricata, collected in Mongolia. Compounds 3-11 and 13, 14 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity with respect to model cancer cell lines. All the compounds were non-toxic in the hemolysis test. CONCLUSION This report about the phytochemical profiles of S. divaricata growing in Mongolia and Buryatia led to the identification of 14 compounds including coumarins and chromones. The available coumarins and chromones may serve as new leads for the discovery of anticancer drugs.
