Flavonoids are the most widespread class of plants constituents. Most flavonoids are produced in biosynthetic pathways of secondary metabolites in plants and chalcones constituent as the important intermediate in flavonoid biosynthesis. In this study, eleven flavonoid derivatives were synthesized namely 2',3,4-trihydroxy-4',6'-dimethoxychalcone (110), 2',4',6'-trihydroxy-4,6-dimethoxychalcone (120), along with new compounds of 4',5,7-trimethoxy-3'-O-prenylflavanone (123), 4',5,7-trimethoxy-3'-O-6-C-diprenylflavanone (126), 2'-hydroxy- 4',6'- dimethoxy-3,4-methylenedioxy -3'-C-prenylchalcone (127), 5,6- chroman- 7-methoxy- 3',4'-methylenedioxyflavone (130), 5,6,7,8- dichroman- 3',4'- methylenedioxyflavone (132), 5',6'- chroman-2',3,4- trihydroxy- 4'-methoxychalcone (134), 3',4',5',6'-dichroman- 2',3,4-trihydroxychalcone (137), 3',4',5',6'-dichroman-3,4-dimethoxy-2'-hydroxychalcone (138) and 5',6'- chroman-2'- hydroxy-4'- methoxy-3,4-O-diprenylchalcone (139).
