Abstract
Acetophenones are naturally occurring phenolic compounds which have found in over 24 plant families and also fungi strains. They are exist in both free or glycosides form in nature. The biological activities of these compounds have been assayed and reported including cytotoxicity, antimicrobial, antimalarial, antioxidant and antityrosinase activities. Herein, we review the chemistry and biological activity of natural acetophenone derivatives that have been isolated and identified until January 2024. Taken together, it was reported 252 acetophenone derivatives in which the genera Melicope (69) and Acronychia (44) were the principal species as producers of acetophenones.
期刊介绍:
Natural Products and Bioprospecting serves as an international forum for essential research on natural products and focuses on, but is not limited to, the following aspects:
Natural products: isolation and structure elucidation
Natural products: synthesis
Biological evaluation of biologically active natural products
Bioorganic and medicinal chemistry
Biosynthesis and microbiological transformation
Fermentation and plant tissue cultures
Bioprospecting of natural products from natural resources
All research articles published in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review. In addition to original research articles, Natural Products and Bioprospecting publishes reviews and short communications, aiming to rapidly disseminate the research results of timely interest, and comprehensive reviews of emerging topics in all the areas of natural products. It is also an open access journal, which provides free access to its articles to anyone, anywhere.
