Phytochemistry 2009, 70, 141-146. Furthermore, chromone derivatives are also used in the development of drugs for antihypertensive, hypoglycemic, and cardioprotective purposes [Hafez, HN; Hegab, MI; Ahmed-Farag, IS; El-Gazzar, ABABioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2008, 18, 4538-4543.], exhibiting central nervous system (CNS) activity [Eiden, F.; Denk, F. Arch. Pharm. 1991, 324, 353-354.].DNA mutagenicity [Al-Sehemi, AG; El-Gogary, SR Chin. J.

Chem. 2009, 52, 7544-7569.], has thus attracted considerable attention in drug development and pesticide chemistry.

[0003] The lipophilicity of chromene compounds enables them to effectively interfere with cell membrane structure and enhance their biological activity [Nicolaou, KC; Pfefferkorn, JA; Roecker, AJ; Cao, GQ; Barluenga, S.; Mitchell, HJJAm. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 9939-9953.]. Besides its wide application in the pharmaceutical and pesticide fields, the benzopyran structure also plays an important role in organic materials chemistry, and is widely used in the development of functional materials such as fluorescent dyes, pigments, synthetic fibers, molecular devices, electrophotographic materials, information storage materials, and decorative and anti-counterfeiting packaging materials [Rao, KP; Kusamoto, T.; Toshimitsu, F.; Inayoshi, K.; Kume, S.; Yamamoto, Y.; Sakamoto, R.; Nishihara, H.

Spirochrome compounds have shown promising application prospects in the field of photochromic materials due to their photochromic properties [Huang Zhennian, Zhao Weili, Fan Meigong. Chemical Bulletin, 1996, 12, 16-21; Liu Yu, Dong Yu, Kang Hongbin, Yang Jin. Journal of Honghe University, 2023, 21, 129-132.].

[0004] From a natural source perspective, chromones and their fused analogues are an important component of many natural products, including alkaloids, flavonoids, tocopherols, anthocyanins, and a variety of antibiotics and anticancer drugs [Iacobucci, GA; Sweeny, J. G. T ... For example, in 1992, Kashman et al. [Kashman, Y.; Gustafson, KR; Fuller, RW; Cardellina, JH; Mahon, JB; Currens, MJ; Buckheit, RW; Hughes, SH; Cragg, GM; Boyd, MRJ Med. Chem. 1992, 35, 2735-2743.] isolated a series of pyranoid coumarin compounds from *Calophyllum lanigerum*, among which (+)-Calanolide As a 2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromene derivative, A exhibits strong biological activity [McKee, TC; Covington, CD; Fuller, RW; Bokesch, HR; Young, S.; Cardellina, JH; Kadushin, MR; Soejarto, DD; Stevens, PF; Cragg, GM; Boyd, MRJ Nat. Prod. 1998, 61, 1252-1256; Galinis, DL; Fuller, RW; McKee, TC; Cardellina, JH; Gulakowski, RJ; McMahon, JB; Boyd, MRJ Med. Chem. 1996, 39, 4507-4510.], such as potent anti-HIV-1 activity, and its EC 50The concentration was 0.1 μM. This compound is effective not only against wild-type HIV-1, but also shows significant inhibitory activity against zidovudine-resistant viral strains and other clinical variants, and belongs to the class of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs).

[0005] In recent years, chromone compounds have also shown significant potential in research on antiviral activity against plant viruses [Hu, QF; Zhou, B.; Gao, XMJNat.Prod.2012,75,1909-1914.]. In 2015, Yang Guangyu [Yang Guangyu, Chen Yongkuan, Liu Zhihua, Han Yi, Duan Yuanxing, Zhang Xia, Zhang Tao, Miao Mingming.CN 103524472B,2015.] et al. isolated 1-(5-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromene-7-yl)-2-propanone from the rhizomes of Yunyan-85. At a concentration of 50 mg / L, it achieved a relative inhibition rate of 38.5% against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), which was superior to the control agent ningnanmycin (28.2%).

[0006] In 2023, Dai Jiameng et al. [Dai Jiameng, Li Zhenjie, Wang Kai, Xiao Dong, Yang Guangyu, Yang Fengxian, Wang Jin, Zhang Jianduo, Kong Weisong, Wang Wenyuan, Li Yinke, Zhou Min, Hu Qiufen. CN 115557960A, 2023.] isolated isopentenylated indole alkaloid Isoaspergilline A from the fermentation products of Aspergillus versicolor YATS1111 fungus. At a concentration of 20 μM, it showed an inhibition rate of up to 58.4% against TMV, which was significantly higher than that of ningnanmycin control (33.2%).

[0007] In summary, the broad range of biological activities exhibited further highlights the central role of chromone structures in drug discovery and agricultural chemistry. Therefore, structural modification and functional development of the chromone skeleton have become one of the current hot research directions in pesticide and medicinal chemistry.
