CAS 2805-53-0: 2-Propen-1-one, 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-

4-Fluoro-4'-nitrochalcone is a coplanar molecule that is a chalcone derivative. It has been shown to form dimers with other molecules due to hydrogen bonding, which may be due to the presence of a nitro group on one of its benzene rings. This chemical has been investigated as a potential drug for the treatment of cancer and it was found that this molecule's structure can be used to identify many biological processes in cells. 4-Fluoro-4'-nitrochalcone's crystal structure revealed hydrogen bonds between its nitro group and the hydrogen atoms on neighboring molecules, which are important for investigating how this molecule functions.
