7B0V, 7B0Z - PubMed Abstract: 
A library of monosubstituted chalcones ( 1 - 17 ) bearing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on both aromatic rings were selected. The cell viability on human tumor cell lines was evaluated first. The compounds unable to induce detectable cytotoxicity ( 1 , 13 , and 14 ) were tested using the monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity assay ...
