“…NO is a potent vasodilator thatfacilitates leukocytic migration and formation of edema as well as leukocytic activity and cytokine production [2]. The crystal structures of some chalcone derivatives viz., 2,3-dibromo-1,3-bis(4-fluorophenyl)propan-1-one [14], 3-(3, 4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, 2-bromo-1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-[4-(methylsulphanyl) phenyl] prop-2-en-1-one [15], (2E)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-[4-(propan-2-yl)phenyl]prop-2-en-1-one [16] and 2-bromo-1-chlorophenyl-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one [17] have been reported. Keeping in view the wide range of activities of the chalcones, we report the crystal structure and lattice energy analysis of both the compounds.…”
